ABOUT Raw Banana Cutlets RECIPE

Raw Banana Cutlets are crunchy, tasty and nutritious snacks . They serve as a filling fruit diet during fasting and also can be served as a variation to the usual cutlets .

Ingredients Serving: 9

3 Large raw Bananas
3-4 tbsp of Peanuts
2 tbsp Sesame seeds
2-3 Green Chilies
2 tbsp of fresh coriander leaves finely chopped
1/2 inch piece of ginger
1 tsp freshly ground black Pepper
2 tsp cumin seeds
2 -3 tbsp of fresh lemon juice
Rock salt ( Sendha namak) to taste
1 tsp Ghee for shallow frying

Instructions

Wash the raw Bananas and trim both their ends. Place them in a container and steam them in a pressure cooker for 15 minutes .
After cooling , peel them and mash them well with a spoon or fork.
Roast the Peanuts on a heated skillet , remove their skin by rubbing and grind them into coarse powder.
Make a paste of ginger , cumin seeds, green chili and coriander. Add this paste along with the peanut powder to the mashed Bananas.
Add Salt , black Pepper powder and lemon juice. Mix all this very well and make into a dough.
Divide the dough into 9 equal parts and shape them either into round or oval tikkis.
Spread the Sesame seeds on a plate . Tap the tikkis on these Sesame seeds so that they coat well on both sides of the tikkis.
On a heated non stick skillet sprinkle just 1 tsp of ghee and shallow fry the tikkis from both the sides until golden brown.
Serve hot with sweet curd or any other dip of your choice. I have served it with sweet peanut chutney.
