Banana stem chaat recipe

Banana stem chaat recipe | Vazhaithandu chaat – Easy to make healthy street style chaat using banana stem | Vazhaithandu – I made this chaat inspired by the popular Mysore street style Bale dindina masala.

The Mysore street-style masala will not include the North Indian chaat chutneys. They use the Mysore ssaru podi | rasam podi, but I want to make it in the usual chaat style. This turned out so well and is a super hit in our home. Kids who generally don’t prefer to eat Banana stem | Vazhaithandu, didn’t even find their trace in the chaat. Since we chop them so finely, it was not so visible in the chaat.

Banana stem | Vazhaithandu has a lot of health benefits. It has high fiber content and helps in weight loss, reduces bad cholesterol, manages diabetics, prevents kidney issues, and is good for curing constipation.
