Vazhakkai Fry with Coconut with step by step pictures. Delicious raw banana poriyal recipe made with raw banana, coconut with spices.
Vazhakkai Fry with Coconut
Amma makes vazhakkai fry often, but it is made like the usual one with chilli powder and salt. This one is different because we add coconut and tamarind. Actually the bananas are cooked in tamarind juice so you will get all the flavour right into the banana which makes it even more tasty.
This recipe is from one my Brahmin friend at work. I have made quite a few recipe from her mom ( You can check it here). I don’t know why but I have a latest craze for iyengar recipes. Think that their recipes are great and worth while to try and blog..As you can see from the title that brahmins call their poriyal dish as karamadu which sounds great right.

Looks yummy.
We prepare the same way but add tamarind at the end. Also goes in a little jaggery to balance the sourness.

What a fascinating recipe. I love that you show a photo of all of the ingredients as some are not familiar to me and would be hard for me to find.
Ann
That's a really interesting and tasty looking dish. I like the sweet/heat aspect of it! Is the banana a plantain? I've never seen a banana that you use a vegetable peeler on it before!
Aarthi
Ann, Yes I used Raw Plantain for this..It is really easier to peel the skin off from a plantain using a peeler

Looks yummy will try it today. But i would like to suggest if your kadai is non stick i see a lot of scratch and its not healthy use it. Teflon when not properly use can be carcinogenic. Please consider to replace or use a stainless steel kadai. Also non stick are ment for delicate food like fish etc so consider replacing it by steel. I guess its just more healthier and safe for the whole family.
