Ethakka varuthathu/Banana fritters.


This is another easy Kerala snack with ripe banana and the most easiest one....no mixing of batter....just peel bananas.....slice them....drop them gently into hot oil....Amma used to make this when unexpected guests arrive or  when she was too lazy to make ethakka appam :).

How to make:
Ripe but firm bananas: 2.
Oil for frying.
Sugar for sprinkling.

Method:

1. Wash and deskin bananas.
2. Slice them and drop them gently into hot oil and fry them on both sides and strain on a paper napkin.

3. Sprinkle sugar on top and serve.

Pidiyum Kozhiyum Recipe - How To Make Kerala Style Kozhi Pidi - Kerala Recipes

Pidiyum kozhiyum or kottayam style pidi is a traditional knanaya cuisine ; these rice dumpling have a thick gravy like sauce, unlike the dry versions of Malabar kakka roti or kozhi pidi. Knanaya style pidi is served with varutharacha kozhi curry. Traditionally, pidi is associated with baby shower ie when the daughter-in-law is sent to her parents house for delivery, it is customary for the mother-in-law to make kozhi pidi and we knanaya people still follow these traditions.
