For a richer flavor, consider using brown sugar instead of white sugar. A pinch of cardamom or a sliver of pandan leaf added during cooking can enhance the aromatic profile. Be careful not to overcook the bananas, as they can become mushy. They should be tender but still hold their shape. For a vegan version, ensure the sugar used is vegan-friendly. This dessert is best served warm, but it can also be enjoyed chilled.
