Raw bananas belong to the banana family , but tend to be firm and can not be eaten raw for sure.  It should be either cooked or fried or even shallow fried adding some masala.  It has a lot of fiber and is good for people with constipation and digestive issues.  It is good for diabetics and also good for weight loss as it has a lot of fiber and keeps fuller for a longer time.  Today I would like to share the recipe of this Raw Banana curry with grind masala and tastes yummy with rice and dal and also with chapati.  Here goes the recipe:
