Next add teaspoon turmeric powder, teaspoon kashmiri red chili powder, teaspoon garam masala powder, teaspoon coriander powder and teaspoon fennel powder. Also add salt as per taste.

step 12

step 13

Continue to saut till bananas are cooked.

step 14

Stir regularly at intervals so that the bananas are cooked evenly or else the bottom layer gets too browned. So frequent stirrings are required.

step 15

Saut till bananas are slightly crisp and cooked well.

step 16

Serve vazhakkai varuval hot or warm as a side dish with any south indian meal. You can even garnish it with some chopped coriander leaves if you want.
