Arbi Fry | Sukhi Arbi Masala | Colocasia Fry | Arbi fry for Fasting
Ingredients
- 500 gms Arbi/ Colocasia/Taro root
- 1 tbsp Kashmiri red chili powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp haldi/turmeric powder
- 2 tbsp coriander powder/ Dhania Powder
- 1 tbsp dry mango powder / amchoor powder
- 1/2 tsp garam masala five spice powder
- 1 tsp carom seeds / Ajwain
- 1/2 tsp bhuna jeera optional
- 1 tbsp cooking oil for frying and tempering
- 1/2 tsp ginger powder
Instructions
- In a Pan fill water and soak the arbi for 2-3 minutes. Do not touch wet arbi, as it creates an itching sensation in the palm. Or if you wish apply mustard oil to your hands first and then touch.
- Boiling / Pressure cooking: Drain, then add this arbi to a pressure cooker, fill water as much that Arbi is submerged in water. Cook on full flame till one whistle. Then simmer and cook until 1 more whistle. Shut the flame and let the steam release on its own. Once the steam is released, peel the skin and keep the arbi pieces aside. If you choose to boil them in a pan instead, then boil them in water until soft inside and then drain. Either way, it does not take too long. But pressure cooking reduces time to cooking within 30 min.
- Frying: Now, Heat oil in a wok to fry. Fry all the arbi pieces until golden brown. Fry them whole only, do not break or press. Keep all fried pieces aside for tempering.
- For Tadka /Tempering : Mix all the spices in a bowl. Heat oil in a pan. Add the spices, let them cook for a few seconds, and add the arbi pieces instantly. Do not let the spices burn.
- Mix the arbi pieces well. Saute till the spice mix is covered well on all pieces.
- Garnish with coriander leaves and serve hot.
