The Goan Kelyachyo Fodi Recipe (Spicy & Crispy Pan Fried Banana Recipe)

Step 1: To begin making the The Goan Kelyachyo Fodi Recipe, first wash and peel the plantain with a peeler

Step 2: Smear oil in your fingers and palms, so the banana starch does not stick to your skin and also prevents it from getting dark

Step 3: Cut the plantain into half and and then slice it lengthwise of 1/4 inch thickness

Step 4: Soak the slices of the plantain in water for 20 minutes

Step 5: Combine the chili powder, turmeric powder and salt in a small bowl

Step 6: After 20 minutes, drain the excess water and coat the raw bananas with this chilli and turmeric mixture

Step 7: Allow it to rest in the chilli marinade for another 10 minutes

Step 8: In another wide platter, combine the ingredients for the coating and keep it aside

Step 9: Heat a couple of tablespoons of oil in the frying pan on medium heat

Step 10: Dip the marinated raw banana in the spicy sooji mixture and toss it well so it coats the banana all around

Step 11: Place the sooji coated bananas on in the frying pan and fry until cooked through and browned well on medium heat

Step 12: This would take anywhere between 8 to 10 minutes

Step 13: Covering the pan halfway through also helps cook the bananas from the inside

Step 14: Flip and cook until both sides are cooked and crisp

Step 15: Serve the The Goan Kelyachyo Fodi (Spicy & Crispy Pan Fried Banana) as a tea time snack or as an appetizer for parties
