Gita Ma'am... a couple of weeks back tauktae cyclone brought down a banana tree my friend's backyard. They dont eat the stem so they gave the entire stem to us. Since I had lots of banana stem, I tried 3-4 recipes over one week. The best, easiest and yummiest of all the 4 recipes that I tried was your poriyal recipe with moong dal. It was light, nutritious and tasty. Thank you for taking efforts to teach us with all the tips, tricks and with so much detail. 😘

We in Assam use only tender saplings for the recipe. We just finely chop the inner core of the sapling. Add lentils or mung dal. Put in cooker to boil. Then tamper with Jeera,dhaniya Onion,garlic, chilli etc etc.
We also use another item of banana fruits. Outer cover of banana is sun dried .Then we burn and collect the Ash . When needed it's used by mixing the Ash to some water to release the alkali to water . This water is filtered and can be used as substitute for cooking soda.
Wow ! Thats amazing! I have never heard of using this banana peel ash . thanks for sharing
Very interesting, marvels of variety...in usage ...
I never knew we could eat it raw too. I tried both your receipes today it was very tasty. My hubby too liked it. I bought this stem after 7 years. I had made it earlier the taste was pathetic so I never dared to try again. This time my hubby bought since it's been years n the receipe was yumm. I'll regularly buy from hereon. Thanks for the receipe Aunty. Post more variations using this veggie
Gita Amma, I have been watching your amazing recipes and learning your tips and tricks from 12 years now. You have been a graceful presence in my life since I lost my mother. Thank you so much. God bless you and your family with good health and lot of happiness.
Thank you Sowmya. Very sorry to hear of your loss. May God give you all the strength dear
I am dying to try this recipe. I live near a large Indian community and do all my spice, fresh veggies and legume shopping there.. fresher and less costly. I found the banana stem there and wondered "What do you do with this?" Since I love to try new things, I researched a recipe and came across this one. In addition, in my Gulf Florida home I have a real banana plant which I often ask my husband to prune down throwing out the stems killed me as I knew there was something I could do with them. Now I know. I use the leaves to make Cuban Tamales with the banana leaves. Now I have a great Indian recipe. .Thank you Gita, I am following you now!!
Most welcome Dinah

Hi Gitaji! Is there a substitute for buttermilk? We are vegan and don't use dairy products. Can I use vinegar in water instead?
tamarind water is also good
Very Nice recipe. Wonderful.
Glad you liked it
Good recipe. Geeta Akka .my child hood days my mom was preparing. It's favourite of my father. He only chopped that 🍌 stem. By applying coconut oil for fingers.

Thank u mam
Kasi Annapurna Welcome
Super mam but we make in different ways. Salad is very different can we eat it raw? Will try .thank u
Indira Warrier yes tender one tastes good when raw
How long do we have to soak the chopped stem in buttermilk before we eat it raw or cook it?
Also , please advise on how to differentiate and choose a fresh, tender stem from a tough old one.
No waiting .. we just keep it in buttermilk to prevent discolouring due to oxidation . You can see by touch , one which is not fibrous at the open end
சுபெர்ப் மேடம் love you so much

I did not know we can eat as salad.Thank you.Stem should be tender
Love you Geeta, you are so pretty.
I wonder how the texture of the receipe would be
Its good!
Mam can u pls tell the difference between the given below two sentences .
It is the central sector scheme being financed completely by the govt.
It is the central sector scheme has been financed completely by the govt.
In the above two sentences, how " being financed " and "has been financed" makes difference in the meaning ???
Has been financed is wrong usage here. Tenses don't match.
Super recipe. I will try both the recipes. Thank you Mam.
