Raw banana cutlet

This is a recipe I tried from the website spiceindiaonline.com. I got bored of the usual raw banana fry and podimas. So I wanted to try a different recipe. The raw banana cutlet was very simple and tempting. At the very first time it came flawless and appreciated by my husband.
The ingredients are simple and takes less time to prepare

Things you'll need :
Raw banana - 1
Onion - 1 finely chopped
Ginger - 1 " piece minced
garlic - 1 or 2 pods minced
curry leaves - 3 or 4
coriander leaves - 2 sprigs
spinach leaves - handful
green chillis - 2 finely chopped
salt - to taste
turmeric powder - 1 tsp
chilli powder - 1 tsp (optional)
Oil - for deep frying or shallow frying

Yield - 15 cutlets




Method:
Step 1 :
Peel and chop the raw banana and cook them in little water with turmeric powder and little salt. Let it cool and mash it without lumps.

Step 2 :
Add the rest of the ingredients with the mashed banana and mix well. Check for salt.

Step 3 :
Shape them into cutlets  and either shallow or deep fry the cutlets according to preference.

Serve them with ketchup or chutney of your choice.
