Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Arbi (Taro root)
- 2 tablespoons Mustard oil
- 1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
- 1 pinch Asafoetida (Hing)
- 1 medium, chopped Green chili
- 1 inch, grated Ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Amchur (dry mango) powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons, chopped Fresh coriander leaves
Instructions
Begin by rinsing the arbi (taro root) thoroughly under running water. Place them in a pressure cooker with enough water to cover the arbi, and cook for 1 whistle on medium heat.
Release the pressure naturally, then drain the arbi and let them cool slightly. Peel the arbi and cut them into thick slices or rounds.
Heat mustard oil in a non-stick pan or a heavy-bottomed skillet until it starts to sizzle.
Add cumin seeds and allow them to splutter, then add a pinch of asafoetida (hing).
Add chopped green chili and grated ginger, sautéing for about 1-2 minutes until they are fragrant.
Introduce the sliced arbi to the pan and stir gently to coat them well with the spices.
Sprinkle turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt over the arbi, and mix well to combine all the spices evenly.
Cook the arbi on low to medium flame, turning occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes until they become golden and crisp on the edges.
Finally, sprinkle amchur powder for a tangy touch and give it a final mix.
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves and serve hot as a side dish with rice or roti.
