Peel and fine chop garlic and onion.
Peel the green skin of the banana.
Once peeled, quickly chop the banana into small pieces.
Wash and chop the curry leaves. Chopping them small makes it easier to eat them in the cooked dish.
Heat the pan.
Once the pan is hot, add cooking oil and put the heat to medium.
Add Asafetida powder and mustard seeds.
Once the seeds start to crackle, add onion, garlic, and curry leaves to it.
Stir till the onion and garlic mix turns golden brown.
Add salt and cut banana to the mix.
Stir fry and cover. Bring the flame to low level.
Cook for another 5 mins till the banana is soft. Close the heat and let it be covered for another round of cooking in steam.
Serve with rice, chapati, or dosa. Enjoy!
