Chettinad Ennai Vazhakkai
Vazhakkai is one versatile vegetable and is also a favourite. There are various ways with Raw Banana. Ennai Vazhakkai is a Chettinad specialty; almost chips like. It is a spicy, crisp and dry. And..... to make this vegetable, you need OIL; as indicated by the name. It is a very simple and easy recipe. Generally, a spicy vegetable is served with Thanni Kuzhambu - a watery gravy with vegetables like Keerai Thandu, Brinjals, Beans, etc. Vazhakkai - 1, large Salt to taste Sambhar Powder - 2 tsp Curry Leaves - 1 sprig Oil - 1/4 cup Saunf - 1/4 tsp Urad Dal - 1/4 tsp Method: Peel and quarter the Vazhakkai. Slice thinly. Take the sliced raw banana in a large bowl and add sambhar powder, salt and 1 tsp oil. Mix well. Keep aside for 10 to 15 minutes. Add in curry leaves. Heat oil (I know its quite a lot. But you need it.) in a thick bottomed Iron or non-stick Kadai. Add urad dal and saunf. When it starts changing colour, tip in the marinated vegetable. Stir fry on high flame for 2 minutes. Then reduce flame and cook, stirring ocassionally; until crisp and dry. It takes quite a while. Be gentle when stirring, as it will start breaking, once it is cooked. Very simple and very tasy!!!
