Raw Plantain Fry

Raw plantain rich in carbohydrates and protein.. Presenting you a yummy Raw plantain fry which would taste almost like a Non-veg item..



Ingredients

Raw Plantain - 1
Onions - 2 medium sized
Garlic - 8 pieces
Ginger - an inch (optional , you can remove if you do not like too much spices)
Turmeric - a pinch
Chilly powder - 1/2 tea spoon
Coriander powder - 1/2 tea spoon.
curry leaves and coriander leaves - some
Salt to taste.

Cut the Raw plantain in round shapes.. Medium sized not too thin. Wash it and boil them in a vessel along with a pinch of turmeric powder and some salt. When it is 75% done.. remove from the stove and drain them.



Grind ginger,garlic and onions as a rough paste as in the pic. below.. The paste should be rough enough so that the onions appear to be finely chopped.



Heat oil in kadai and add mustard seeds., once mustard pops out, add curry leaves and add the onion, ginger garlic rough paste to it. Lower the flame and fry until it turns slight brown color.
Add chilly powder, coriander powder and salt to it.. Remember we have added a pinch of salt to the vegetable already.

Mix and fry for 2 minutes and add the boiled plantain to it.


Close the lid and let it cook for 15-20 minutes in low flame.. Needs to be turned say every 3 minutes so that the vegetable is cooked evenly..

When the vegetable turns brown at the ends and well fried.. remove from the flame and garnish with coriander leaves..


Will taste at its best...
