This is my 2nd plantain stem/vazhaithandu recipe, I have tasted plantain stem just recently after hearing its health benefits and also I loved the taste of it. Now this resulted in the second recipe.
Health benefits of Vazhaithandu / Plantain stem: It is a good source of dietary fiber. It acts as a laxative and can ease constipation and when combined with buttermilk, it helps in weight reduction. It is a relief for ulcers, burning sensation and acidity. Let us move on to the recipe…
