Hey Hari. This looks delish! I really wish I could try this. We used to get raw bananas aplenty when in Bangalore, but out here it is more seasonal.
Raw bananas are safe for diabetics as they have a lot less starch compared to ripe bananas. However, I wondered if I could make it without using jaggery? Would it affect the taste too much?
Great picture!
