 Ingredients:

Raw Banana -1nos (large)

Chilli Powder -1tsp

Turmeric Powder – ¼ tsp

Salt – As required

Water - ½ cup

Oil – To fry

How to prepare Valaikai poriyal:

• Peel the banana skin and slice it to thin round piece. Drop the sliced piece immediately in water to avoid colour change.
• Now in a pan add ½ cup water, sliced banana, chilli powder, turmeric powder and salt. Cook this till the water evaporated completely.
• Allow to cool, separate the slices and now deep fry the slices in batches and serve.

Tips:

• If you have time after cooking the slices transfer it to plate and separate the slices to dry for 20-30mins under fan or in sun and then fry them. This will reduce the oil getting splitter also masala will get well coated.
