Raw banana Fry- Crispy banana stir fry cooked in Southern Indian style

Raw banana fry is a very crisp and delicious recipe from Tamil Cuisine. This recipe can be done very quickly and easily.Raw bananas are very healthy ,they are a good source of fiber, minerals and vitamins, high in potassium and B6 so good for blood pressure control and are heart healthy .The fiber content is good for digestion . So do try to include banana in your regular diet either raw or ripe which ever ways suits you.

Though Banana is used mainly in Southern Indian cuisine but in Northern parts Banana is not only used as a fruits but also used to make many sweet and savory dishes .

For making this raw banana fry do not peel off the banana skin completely,use a potato peeler to peel the skin. slice them thinly so they roast well and don’t take too much time to cook. Blanching in boiling water is optional as some banana varieties need more time to cook so blanching reduces the cooking time. Addition of mango powder or lemon juice is again optional but highly recommended.
