VAZHAKOOMPU VADA / BANANA FLOWER FRITTER

Vazhakkoompu has a lot of health benefits and we used to make it as thoran commonly. But banana flower is good for making vada and now I am adding this healthy recipe for you. Kids also will like this. Preparing any dish with vazhakkoompu is very difficult, but it is fibrous and good for kidney functioning and all. So don't throw away vazhakkompu and make variety dishes from that.


VAZHAKKOOMPU VADA


INGREDIENTS


Vazhakkoompu / Banana Flower - 1
Shallots - 10 (chopped)
Green chillies - 3 (chopped)
Red chilli powder - 1/4 teaspoon
Basan (kadalamavu ) - 3 tablespoon
Curry leaves - 2 springs (chopped)
Garam masala - 1/2 teaspoon
Ginger - 1 piece (chopped)
Garlic (crushed) - 3
Turmeric powder - 1/4 teaspoon
Salt - to taste
Cooking oil - as required


METHOD

Take banana flower and chop it well. (take out each florets and remove the hard and long stigma ( kallanum kalliyum of vazhakoompu in malayalam) while chopping). Dip chopped banana flower in saline water or rub it with coconut oil to avoid changing the color.Cook this with some water, salt and turmeric powder. Drain excess water and press it to get dry. Add all the chopped ingredients, basan  and powders with cooked banana flower and mix well. The dough for vada (fritter) is ready.

   Now make small balls from dough and flatten it as vada. Make all dough like this and deep fry in hot oil. (We can shallow fry them instead fry cooking,  to reduce the use of oil). Now the Vazhakkoompu Vada / Banana flower fritter is ready to serve. Serve hot with tomato sauce.
