A simple dish that is prepared with less oil and not heavy on the tummy. The main tip to get the perfect texture of the dish is to cook the raw banana till 3/4 only and use a grater with big holes. You can use turmeric powder for a bright look and replace raw banana with half cooked potato too. It’s a perfect side dish with Garlic Kuzhambu, Vatha Kuzhambu and Mochai Kuzhambu too. Finally, I have shared this Vazhakkai Podimas Recipe with step by step pics and a short YouTube video too.

Notes

Tips for Vazhakkai Podimas Recipe

  1. Use firm and fresh raw banana, so it will be easy to cook and grate.
  2. Also, cook the raw banana in a pressure cooker, just for 1 whistle only. If cooked more, it will be difficult to grate and becomes mushy.
  3. Raw banana can be cooked in an open pot too: fill the pot / pan with water. Once it starts to roll boil, add the raw banana and cook till 3/4th only.
  4. Use a grater, with bigger holes for a nice look. If you don't have a grater in hand, peel the skin of the raw banana and mash it slightly with your fingers.
  5. Tempering can be done with coconut oil too, it adds a nice flavour to the Vazhakkai Podimas Recipe.
  6. Use shallots only for a very good taste, never use regular onions.
  7. Addition of garlic, ginger lends a nice flavour and helps in digestion.
  8. Adjust green chilli as per spice level required, if preferred red chilli can be used for tempering.
  9. Even 1/4 tsp of turmeric powder can be added for a colourful Raw Banana Podimas Recipe.
  10. Don't reduce grated coconut, as it is the main ingredient which adds a nice taste to the podimas.
