Seppankilangu (Arbi/Taro Root) Roast

Sepankizhangu Fry is a spicy side dish. A simple and tasty taro root roast recipe with Indian spices.Though it looks dry and unexciting from outside, if cooked skillfully, Arbi can be very delicious. .Slowly I started to become a fan of this dish.We never deep fry it.just add little oil and cook it in medium flame. Hence we are good on health benefits too. When you select this vegetable look for the ones in brown color with hairy roots and firm. The ones that are too big are not tasty.One other point is do not cook the roots in pressure cooker. It will get mashed when you fry it.
