Vazhakkai (Raw Banana) & Oats Kara Poriyal

Raw banana as anything is our family's favourite for the sure, chips with this raw banana or gravies with anything and raw banana are my H's favourite..i can list out many and more dishes which are our favourite with this raw banana..Yesterday we went for shopping to Indian groceris and i picked few raw bananas,thought of making out some gravies, they were really very fresh and i planned to make out some stir fries with those green raw bananas and finally i went for a stir fry with quick cooking oats where normally i used to make out this stir fries with grated coconut, i replace the coconut part with quick cooking oats which turned out this dish truly delicious, healthy and also very prefect as side dish...We loved it..This delicious and spicy stir fried dish suits awesome as side dish for any rice dishes and i can definitely say that none will find out the difference unless u say that u have used oats in this dish..
