The innermost part of the banana stem ,otherwise known as Pindi is a high- fibre veggie abundant in plenty in our farms,but rarely utilised by us .We often forget about its health benefits.In my child hood I have seen my mum making curries with it,which we really enjoyed So I tried a kuruma with dhal and banana stem. Vow...It came out really tasty and found that it can be served with chappathi porotta ,Battura etc...Really a healthy veggie which takes away the toxins from the human body.......
