For preparing raw banana fry, first cook the washed banana pieces with some water, turmeric powder and required salt.

Cover with a lid and cook in low heat until the vazhakka pieces are done and water has evaporated fully.

Heat oil in a frying pan and crackle mustard seeds. Add garlic paste, chilly powder and curry leaves. Stir in cooked vazhakka pieces.

Fry the raw banana/vazhakka pieces to a golden brown color.

Raw banana fry, a favorite kerala dish, is ready. Serve hot.
