How to Prepare Banana Peel Stir Fry [Vegan]

  1. Slice the plantain peel into small and thin pieces. Keep it aside in a bowl, filled with water.
  2. In a pan, put the oil. Add the mustard seeds and wait for them to pop.
  3. Add the sliced shallots, red chilis and curry leaves and saute. Add half of the turmeric powder and stir.
  4. Squeeze out water from the banana peel and add it into the pan. Sprinkle some salt and mix it all well. Turn down the heat to medium low.
  5. Let it cook for about 10 minutes, while you stir it every couple of minutes, to avoid sticking or burning.
  6. Meanwhile, take the grated coconut, remaining turmeric powder, green chillies and cumin seeds in a blender jar. Blend it or pulse it just to crush everything together.
  7. Add it to the banana peel mixture and mix it well. Cover and cook it for 2-3 minutes. Then stir it again and cook it uncovered for another minute.
  8. Serve it hot with some rice and moru curry.

Notes

Chopping the banana peel thin and into small pieces helps it to cook faster. Placing the chopped banana peel in the water prevents it from turning dark in color.
