Ingredients
- 500 grams Arbi (Taro Root)
- 2 tablespoons Ghee
- 1 teaspoon Cumin Seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Mustard Seeds
- 2 Green Chilies
- 10 Curry Leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Turmeric Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Red Chili Powder
- 1 teaspoon Coriander Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Amchur Powder (Dry Mango Powder)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Fresh Coriander Leaves
Directions
Step 1
Begin by washing the arbi (taro root) thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Peel the skin with a vegetable peeler and slice the arbi into thin, even slices.
Step 2
In a large pan, heat the ghee over medium heat. Once hot, add the cumin seeds and mustard seeds. Allow them to sizzle and pop for a few seconds.
Step 3
Add the green chilies and curry leaves to the pan, stirring for about 1 minute until fragrant and the chilies begin to soften.
Step 4
Add the sliced arbi to the pan, stirring to coat them well with the ghee and spices.
Step 5
Sprinkle the turmeric powder, red chili powder, coriander powder, and salt over the arbi slices. Mix thoroughly to ensure even distribution of the spices.
Step 6
Cover the pan with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Let the sabzi cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. If the mixture seems too dry, splash a little water to help cook the arbi through.
Step 7
Once the arbi is tender and cooked, sprinkle the amchur powder over the sabzi and stir to combine.
Step 8
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander leaves before serving.
Step 9
Serve hot with a side of yogurt or as part of a low-carb meal.
