Raw Banana Cutlets

Not everyone likes raw banana (plantain), but it can be put to numerous uses, since it is a rich source of vitamins and minerals. Additionally green banana is a good source of resistance starch, which is not broken down by the body and acts like fiber. It also contains vitamin B6, which plays an important role in the formation of hemoglobin.

Fiber is essential for the good health of your digestive system.

Let's get back to the recipe. Raw banana can be put to many uses.

Today, I made raw banana tikki/cutlets. Better to call it tikki since I used only 1 tbsp of oil while the recipe called for deep frying. Another experiment from my healthy kitchen.

2 raw bananas (boiled and grated)
1/2 boiled potato (boiled)
1/2 onion

1 tsp garlic-ginger paste
1/4 tsp- haldi
1/2 tsp jeera
1 tsp rice flour or suji
1 tbsp oats

Procedure
Mix everything well. Make a big ball. Refrigerate for 10 minutes
Take out and make small balls. Flatten the balls like a tikki.
Take a non stick pan/ tawa (I used a tawa). Grease it with 1 tbsp oil..
Place the tikkis on the skillet (tawa). Keep on low flame.
Cover with a plate. Keep checking every 5 minutes. Rotate side when 1 side is done.
Took me 10-12 mins approx (may take you longer depending on the quantity)

Can we use the soaked water for millets? Does millet need to be soaked?

Do millets contain anti-nutrients? Yes, they do. In fact, all whole grains, including oats, contain phytates, which bind to minerals and make their absorption difficult for the body. Soaking is the first step toward reducing anti-nutrients from millets. Soak for at least 6-8 hours to make digestion easier. Discard the soaked water and then proceed to the next step of cooking. Remove foam from top to reduce gassy elements from millets. How long should millet be soaked before cooking? Soaking the millets overnight is a safe practice. Soaking breaks down the phytic acid in millets or for that matter grains and nuts. Phytic acid hinders the absorption of minerals and nutrients in food, including calcium, iron, and zinc. How?
