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.

Raw Banana Cutlets Ingredients:

2 raw bananas (boiled and grated)
1/2 boiled potato (boiled)
1/2 onion
1-2 green chillies
1 tsp garlic-ginger paste
1/4 tsp- haldi
1/2 tsp jeera
1 tsp rice flour or suji
1 tbsp oats
1 tsp coriander powder
coriander leaves
salt as per taste

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)

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.
