Colocasia (arbi / taro)

अरबी

Fresh Produce

Arbi masala, patra from the leaves, and a Gujarati favourite.

What to know

Boil it first, then peel, then fry. Peeling it raw is slippery, and frying it unboiled leaves it gluey.

Measures

1 piece ≈ 50 g

Cups here are the Indian 200 ml cup, not the 240 ml US cup — a common reason a recipe does not work. Weigh where you can; the grams are the figure we cook to.
