Instructions
For Making Raw Banana Powder
- Take very raw, firm, big banana.
- Cut both the ends off. Use a knife and make deep slashes on the banana all over the skin. Now peel them.
- Then use a slicer to slice them into rough slices.
- Arrange them on a plate and place it in the sun for a good couple of days or untill it is completely dry.
- Now take them in a blender and powder them.Use a fine sieve to sift it.Store in an air tight container.
For Making Raw Banana Porridge
- Take a clean saucepan, add in 1 tablespoon of karupatti. Now pour ¼ cup of clean water. Heat this up and cook until the karupatti is melted.
- Now take a clean bowl and add 2 scoops of banana powder. Add some clean water and mix it up till smooth.
- Now place a fine mesh strainer over the bowl and Sieve the karupatti liquid through this. Mix this well.
- I washed the saucepan in the meantime. Now pour this liquid again in the saucepan. Heat this on a low flame stiring continuously.
- Cook this for around 2 mins till the banana is cooked and thicken.
- Take it off the heat, allow it to cool down and transfer it to feeding bowl or feeding bottle and feed your baby..
Notes
- The consistency of the porridge which you make totally depends on you. You can make it too runnier and pour it bottles and feed your baby or make it little thicker and feed your baby using a spoon.
- I use panakarkandu or karupatti as sweetener. Karupatti strengthens your baby bones. Panakarkandu helps preventing cold for your babies. You can even mix up a small piece of both.
- If you feed a good bowl of this for your baby. Your baby will sleep peacefully for a good 2 to 3 hours. It is that filling.
- This won't cause constipation in babies. I am feeding this every alternate days to maha and she is passing stool daily.
