Upperi is a term used in Kerala cuisine (South India) to refer to fried vegetable or fruit chips, often prepared as a snack or side dish. The term "upperi" is particularly known for its association with banana chips (nendran upperi), made from sliced raw plantains that are deep-fried in coconut oil until crisp. Upperi is commonly served during the traditional Kerala feast called Sadya, especially for festivals like Onam and Vishu.
