Hello Friends I am Ajay from Banjarapalaya E4D makerspace

Learn how to make Vazhathandu Poriyal, an authentic South Indian dish, which I found is a remixed version of this inspirational instructable and made simpler to cook!, Also I used an unripe banana stem for cooking, so it can also be used as a survival food when you don't have much to eat.

Materials:

Ask permission to cut the stem of the Banana plant.

Actually we should have cut the stem after harvesting, but we cut it prior to that in order to make the instructable.

Take a clean kitchen knife and cut the required portion of the stem as shown in image.

Now, you should be able to peel off the dirty layers using hand.

As shown in the first image, we are pointing at the central part using a knife. We just need this cylindrical tasty portion and eat it! So peel of all other layers

Using the Kitchen knife, cut it and wash it in water to remove the gluey liquid.

Cut onion, cabbage, and chilly into small slices...

Take a big pan and a induction stove, begin heating.

Put oil as much as required, plus some mustard seeds for traditional Indian Flavor.

Mix the onion,cabbage,banana stem,and chilly in the frying pan.

Fry everything you mixed for 3 to 5 minutes until onion turns Golden Brown in color.

Put salt, turmeric powder, coriander powder, ginger garlic paste and chilly powder.

Mix everything and fry it .
