This is one of those surprise desserts that you buy wrapped in a banana
leaf. You will need to ask what is inside unless you like lucky dip!
This one is called "khanom sod sai" though sometimes you might hear it
being called "khanom sai sai". The brown filling in this one is
shredded coconut though you will sometimes find alternatives. The
pudding is sticky rice with a topping of coconut cream and rice flour.
This is then wrapped in a banana leaf and put in a steamer for about
ten minutes. Four of these cost about 10 baht so it is worth
experimenting.
