Navratri is almost here and if you'll be fasting during the festival, why not do it in style? Here's a yummy raw banana sabzi to make for a wholesome delicious dinner.
3-4 raw bananas 1/2 teaspoon whole cumin seeds 1/2 teaspoon roasted cumin powder 3-4 green chillies 1/2 teaspoon Golmarich (black pepper) powder 1 big tomato 2-3 tablespoons ghee Rock salt to taste
Begin by peeling the bananas, then wash and slice them. Also, chop the tomato and green chillies.
Add ghee to a pan then add the whole cumin seeds and green chillies. When the cumin seeds begin to crackle, add the sliced bananas and sauté for 3-4 minutes.
Add the tomatoes and rock salt, mixing everything well.
Continue to sauté for 2-3 minutes, then sprinkle in the black pepper powder and roasted cumin powder. Stir to combine.
Add some water and allow the mixture to cook. When the liquid starts to thicken, turn off the heat. Serve the dish with hot water chestnut or buckwheat flour puris.
