You need to buy dark green banana leaves. This makes it easy to remove the panki and it does not stick. First of all when I go to market they are two types of banana tree leaves, so when we buy we have to ask for banana leaves for preparing Panki. Don't buy the pointed banana leaves which are used for pooja.

Cut the banana leaves with a sicossor into small sizes of 4.5 inches width and approx 7 inches in length. We will be cooking the panki on the banana leaves. We cut 2 meadium banana leaves into 16 pieces. This will make 8 makai pankis.
