Thummi kura pappu is had on Vinayaka Chavithi.

I had collected some very fancy recipes for a coconut lovers bday. But it fell on a festival and eggs are not allowed. Vegan coconut cake is the way to go. I have never used vinegar in cakes before. Yesterday, my husband bought green plantain. I have cooked it before but this was Dole's and felt it would ripen, given time. So I wasnt sure if it would be sweet and ruin the curry. But after reading that even banana peel can be used to make Banana peel curry  I went ahead and made the curry, without even boiling like the oriignal green ones are supposed to be prepped. From samosas, there was green chutney remaining. I had to use it.  Mint Chutney rice.
