Onam Sadya Kurukku Kalan Recipe

Peel and cut the raw banana into medium pieces. Wash them thoroughly. In a sauce pot preferably a clay pot add banana pieces.

Then add turmeric powder, black pepper powder and salt.

Approximately add 2 cup of water and cook them for about 10 minutes or until the banana is cooked and the water is absorbed and banana pieces get cooked well with all flavors.

Meanwhile make a fine paste of the grated coconut, cumin seeds, fenugreek seeds and green chillies. Use curd instead of water to grind it.

When is the raw banana is cooked add the ghee and the coconut paste. If you feel the gravy is very thick you can add little water at this stage

Check for salt and add if necessary. Allow the Kalan to simmer in low flame for around 5 minutes. Keep stirring well until the curry turns smooth and silky consistency. Now Switch off the flame....
