Banana stem is rich in potassium and vitamin B6. Vitamin B6 helps in production of haemoglobin and insulin. It also helps prevent high blood pressure. So banana stems have lots of health benefits.

I prepared a banana stem raita recipe with fresh curd and some powdered masala. It's yummy, healthy and goes well with rice and roti.
