Simple South Indian style Seppan kizhangu fry (Hindi- Arbi; English- Taro). Taro is native to Southern India and Southeast Asia. It is a starchy root vegetable. Boiling is the best way to cook this vegetable, so that it is easy to peel the skin & helps to cook fast. It is really tasty dish with curd/ yogurt rice, sambar rice etc., This dish is one of my favorite recipe, were I inspired from mom.
