Vazhakkai (Raw Banana) Curry is a flavorful South Indian dish, known for its crispy texture and bold spices. To make it crispy, slice the raw banana into thin rounds or cubes and parboil them briefly. Drain and coat the pieces with a mixture of turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt. Shallow fry in oil until they turn golden brown and crispy. In a separate pan, temper mustard seeds, curry leaves, and dried red chilies, and toss the fried banana pieces in the tempering for extra flavor. This crispy Vazhakkai curry is perfect as a side dish for rice and sambar!
