Arbi Roast - Colocasia - Sepankizhangu Roast - Taro root roast

This is such an easy and tasty fry which i make occasionally at home, whenever i make it my family just loves it. Especially my hubby. It goes great with Mor Kuzhambu and rasam varieties. Found out today that it goes well with sambar too.
Let's learn to make Arbi Roast - Colocasia - Sepankizhangu Roast - Taro root roast with this easy recipe


Ingredients :

Arbi / Seppankizhangu - 500 gms
Turmeric - 1/4 tsp
Red chilli powder - 1 tsp
Coriander pdr - 2 tsp
Cumin pdr - 1 tsp
Mustard+Jeera - 1/2 tsp (Jeera - optional)
Salt - to taste
Oil - 4 tbsp

Method :

1. Wash and pressure cook the taro root for 2 whistles, this is the most important step. Ensure it doesn't get mushy. It should get cooked just soft. Once pressure releases, I transferred it immediately to cold water to prevent it from further cooking in the existing hot water
2. Cool and peel the skin of Arbi. Cut into halves ensuring round shape. In a bowl add 1/2 tbsp of oil, sprinkle salt, turmeric, chilli powder, coriander pdr, cumin pdr, and toss it well such that the masala is coated. Let it sit there for about 15-20 minutes
3. Now add a tbsp of oil in a pan, add to it mustard and jeera. Once it splutters add the marinated arbi to it and roast on low flames
4. Cover it and cook it. Inbetween open the lid and toss it such that it cooks evenly. Ensure it doesn't get burnt

Roasted Seppankizhangu is ready to be served hot. Easy isnt it ?!? Try it with your family and post us your joy
