Vazhakkai Poriyal | Vazhakkai varuval |Vazhakkai curry | valakkai poriyal recipe | raw plantain  recipe a flavorful raw plantain  based side dish.
 
Marination gives a nice flavour to this Vazhakkai Poriyal. I am not a big fan of Plantain, occasionally I buy it. In our home we generally prepare Vazhakkai podimas or Vazhakkai podi curry as side dish for rice.
This particular Vazhakkai Poriyal recipe I learnt from my friend’s mom and I liked it, so started cooking this frequently. This is similar to Plaintain chips but marinated and cooked
