My mother is a vegetarian but she cooks superb chicken and meat curries. But that is not her specialty. Her cooking repertoire is well-known for using local ingredients and turning them into delicious meals. I still remember, we use to get the gigantic bunch of raw banana from our farmhouse. So like a wise house lady, half of those raw bananas she used to wrap individually in newspapers and put in some warm place to mature. The remaining ones get loaded in colorful baskets and delivered to our neighbors as a pass over. But we use to help her in this whole mundane job for the love of her Kachhe Kele Ki Sabzi. It is a simple dry preparation of raw banana without using any onion or garlic.  
 
Kachhe Kele Ki Sabzi is a no onion - garlic recipe prepared using raw bananas. An excellent gluten free dish.

After marriage, when we moved to South India, I noticed every part of Banana plant is being used wisely, which is quite impressive. Plantain leaves are used for eating while flower and stem are used for making curries, interesting!!! Somehow I managed to understand the making of Kachhe Kele Ki Sabzi from my mother over a telephonic conversation and to my surprise after few trials it turned out perfect. Raw Banana does not need much time to cook or soften so while cooking does not add too much water. The nature of raw banana is very much similar to that of a potato, the same bland taste, quick to cook and prone to blackening if left cut for a longer time. Also, add sufficient oil while cooking to keep banana slices crisp and getting stick to the bottom.

You can prepare Kacche Kele ke Kebab (see recipe here) as well using the raw banana, that too is an excellent gluten-free dish. You can make Kacche Kele Ki Sabzi for the occasions like Navratri or Diwali when onion and garlic are not used in the cooking. It tastes delicious with Khatta Meetha Kaddu or Bathua Raita. Learn how to make Kachhe Kele Ki Sabzi in few simple steps:
