On the above pictures, on the left one I did not add the banana in the mixture and the banana was not very ripe so the taste not as great but with the picture on the right, as you can see the colour of the banana is different. As I added the banana in the mixture and it also gave the  mixture the smell of banana as well. Very important to get ripe banana and not those almost ripe one. Best to buy it a few days before making this.
