Its super easy still some of my friends had requested to post details, so I thought of putting it on my blog, kindly prepare it at home with LOVE at least during vishu and onam instead of buying it,
Strictly use pure coconut oil to get the authentic taste. Also take care to spread it on a newspaper after slicing, otherwise chances are there to get sticky. Two things have to be well taken care of; Chips should be crispy and yellow in color.
Ingredients
Nentrakkaya (Raw Kerala Banana ) 2kg
Coconut Oil for deep fryingWater
Salt to taste
Turmeric Powder 2-3 tsp
Method
Take the plantains and make slits on the green skin vertically with a sharp knife , please make sure not to go too deep and cut the fruit.
After that with your hands, carefully remove the skin.
(We can keep the skin aside and prepare a tasty thoran out of it. its a healthy dish.)
In a large vessel take some water and sprinkle turmeric powder.
Cleaned plantains keep it immersed in water for some time, wash it well and dry them with a clean cotton cloth,
Take the dry banana one by one and slice it thin and spread on newspaper carefully.
In a small bowl take some water to melt about 2 to 3 tsp of salt and mix well and keep aside.
Heat oil in a Kadai for deep frying, (we can keep a small bundle of turmeric powder as kizhi in the oil (its optional) to get the yellow colour)
Once the oil is hot, slowly add the sliced banana in batches.keep stirring once in a while
Once you think its crispy, we can make it out from the sound we get, add salt water, keep stirring continuously.Drain it once the bubbles and sound have almost stopped. then spread it on a tissue paper, Allow it to cool before storing in airtight containers.
