But today I will give the Kaanch Kola r chochori recipe. But before that I will give the inspiration of the dish. Just by chance I watched "Bizarre Food" on travel channel. I love travel channel but generally I skip this particular program simply because they show too much of bizarre food. As I was about to change the channel I realized they were featuring India. I stopped had to. What was bizarre about Indian food? I must know and so I sat and watched the whole show.
They featured O Calcutta and their Head chef Joy Banerjee cook Banana flower (mocha), and Banana stem. That's how I was inspired to make kaanch kola r chochori. I knew how to make mocha. quite tedious, I wasn't sure if we had banana stem in the market, but I knew kaanch kola is available. So, I went and brought fresh banana squash and made this dish. It came out nice and I have been asked to repeat my feat.
Can I call this my original since I did not follow any one's recipe?
So this is my original, Yeppeeiiii

Kaanch Kola r chochori

fresh Kaanch kola
one medium potato
half onion

Cut the banana squash and potatoes into tiny slices.
Heat the oil and add the dry red chillies, mustard seeds. let them splutter, then add the onions. once the onions turn transparent and start turning golden at the end, add the potatoes and banana squash. keep frying them in the oil add salt and sugar. some water will start coming off the bananas and potatoes. let that evaporate and keep frying. In the process mash the whole then and keep stirring to make a mixture of it all in the wok. Now add the masalas, turmeric, cumin powder, coriander powder, pepper crush, all of them.
DO not put the garam masala right now.
keep mixing. now sprinkle some water i it starts getting too dry and sticks to the wok bottom. keep mixing. once you can smell all the masalas and feel the who mixture soften and all the ingredients mixed add the green chillies and garam masala.
it takes about 25-30 min to make the whole thing.
You can garnish it with fresh coriander.
PS- you can use boiled potatoes instead of frying like I do. But I like it mashed while fry cooking.
Its fun.
