Raw Banana dish as a main meal

If you are having a ripen Banana bunch from your homestead. Then lot of options are there. Here this bunch of banana is a two tier one. Nature’s gift. The bunch as usual emerged. Then it finished. After a break of a week further the inflorescence starts blooming out with small bananas. Thus came the two tier.

The side dishes with raw banana are common in our cusine such as avial, thoran, parippu curry, mezhukkupuratti etc. 

This time I did main dishes out of raw banana. One just peeled, quartered, pressure cooked and sautéed. Already posted in this blog.   

Today prepared with grated coconut and had it for dinner with pickles. Avoid the main carbs, rice and wheat from the main meal.

Easy to prepare. Peeled the banana, put its in water to get rid off the stain in the raw banana. You need to apply coconut oil in your palms before peeling the raw banana. Wash it well in 3-4 waters and pressure cook adding turmeric and salt. Allow to cool down. Heat a tbsp. of coconut oil in a shallow pan, drop in finely chopped onion and garlic, sauté till tender, add green chilli slits, grated coconut, cumin and chilli powder, mix well and add cooked banana and 2 sprigs of curry leaves. Combine well, adjust salt. Dish is done.
