Notes

Arbi has many health benefits along with its taste. Arbi or Colocasia esculenta or Taro can be cooked in many different ways whether it can be dry (sookhi arbi) or with gravy. But at my home, this is the most loved form of arbi. 
Points to take care-
  • Most importantly, arbi can cause itching on your hands while peeling and cutting. So it is advised to put some mustard oil to your hands before peeling or cutting.
  • Secondly, after peeling and washing, arbi needs to be wiped off with a clean and dry cloth so as to make it dry( without moisture)
  • Thirdly, the slices cut should not be too thick because otherwise, they will take a lot of time to cook.
  • Lastly, it should be properly cooked otherwise, you can feel little itching in your throat also if it is left uncooked.
