Vazhakkai Varuval / Raw Banana Fry Recipe

Written By Angela Steffi on Wednesday, December 14, 2016 | 10:22:00 PM

Raw Banana Fry / Vazhakkai Varuval / Valakkai fry  is one of my favorite side which my mom makes very often. this is an awesome companion for variety rice especially with lemon rice and curd rice. I am big fan of this recipe because we need only less oil to make this dish and it still tastes like the one which we deep fry in the oil. Not only for this recipe i am big fan of the entire tree itself because it has a lot of medicinal values and all the parts of the banana plant is edible.Stem of the plantain is used for making poriyal (vaalaithandu poriyal) , the flower is also used to make poriyal (sidedish), we can also make vadai with the plant's flower. Moreover the fruit " banana " tastes wonderful and is good for health.

Cooking Method


Step 1) Peel the skin of the raw banana and cut it into roundels. Do not cut them very thin as we do for banana chips it should be a little thick.


Step 2) Add the raw banana to the boiling water and cook for 2-minutes. this process helps to soften the banana. After 2 -3 minutes drain the water completely and add it to a bowl. (if required blot it with a paper tower to remove excess moisture)


Step 3) season the cooked raw banana with Turmeric powder, Garam masala, Chili powder, salt and pepper. mix it well and make sure all the sides are nicely covered with the masalas.


Step 4) Heat oil in a pan ,add mustard seeds and urad dal. mix it once and add the seasoned raw bananas, placing it flat on the surface of the pan. Cook until it turns nice and crisspy, once crisp flip it to the other side and cook until both the sides turn golden and crispy.
