Loaded with soluble fibers, the raw banana stem is beneficial in curing a variety of gastro-intestinal disorders. And it is especially good after a heavy meal or during the summer months when the digestive tract turns sluggish. Plus it tastes really good when mixed with buttermilk and a few spices. In fact, I found it to be a good substitute for rasam ( which gives warmth to the body ) on the hot days.

Instructions
 

  • Remove the outer layers of the banana stem. Wash the inner core and wipe it dry.
  • Slice off and discard about 1/2 inch of the banana stem from both the ends. Cut slices about 3-4 mm thick and soak the round pieces in the buttermilk. Keep aside for 1 hour.
  • Transfer the buttermilk and the banana stem to a blender jar. Give it a good buzz and then strain the liquid. Discard the fibrous solids.
  • Heat the oil in a tempering pan. Add the red chili, peppercorn, mustard and cumin seeds.
  • Once they get popping, add the curry leaves too. Remove from the flame.
  • Add the tempering to the buttermilk. Season with salt and check for the consistency.
