    About Raw Banana Peel Kootu Recipe

    The banana variety used in this recipe is nendran banana, It is also called as kerala banana. This banana variety is used in making chips. Check this link for banana chips recipe.

    Raw banana(nendran) skin has so much meat and less fibrous texture than regular banana. So you can chop them and use in recipes. You can make thoran using the same method too. But use less water and cook till moong dal is just cooked so it is not mushy.
