This simple Vazhakkai Porriyal |Raw Plantain Curry Recipe is a nice way to include this vegetable in our daily menu.
I love raw plantain chips or Upperi as we call it and it is one of my go to dishes if I have this veggie at home.
Preparing curry with raw plantain is not something I do often. And when I make it, it will be the grated and sauteed version.For a change I made this type of curry and to my surprise it tasted so good! I have been preparing curry this way for quite some time now.
This was actually cooked first and clicked in 2017! Yes, I was going through the folders and found these pics and thought will share them now. Not sure if this was from a bookmarked recipe or I just made it depending on the mood of the day!
