This recipe takes about 30 minutes of preparation time and server 2-3 people.


Precaution

Apply some coconut oil to your hands while cutting Banana. This will avoid sap from sticking to your fingers which makes them black.


Here I have used coconut oil for frying. It gives a nice flavour but you can also use sunflower or peanut oil


Steps to make Kelyachi kaapa
