Pumpkin & Raw Banana Stir Fry


          This is a simple homemade stir fry dish with some leftover veggies that were sitting in my refrigerator. Here I made this curry with pumpkin and raw banana. Very easy and at the same time delicious, it has a minimum of spices. It can be enjoyed as a side dish with either rice or chapattis. You can also add any other veggie of your choice. So check out the step by step pictorial recipe to prepare it.
