Not the best looking pictures, but was yummy. We call it Arbi, world calls it Taro/Colocasia. Arbi is a root vegetable which is great as it has a lot of health benefits ( which I talk about in the end of the post like always)
There are many ways you can cook Arbi, and it always tastes great. I had two ice creams today, so kept the dinner a little sane.
Also, one new thing I have started is cooking food in Coconut Oil ( not the Parachute one okay lol) This amazing oil has so many health benefits that it a MUST to be included in our food choices. We as North Indians, might feel a little weird thinking about it, though in Southern side it is a common practice to use it everyday in the Kitchen. It does not smell ( let us not compare it with Parachute please :-p) and make the food flavorful. It is often described as “The Healthiest Oil on Earth”. No wonder the West is going crazy with Coconut Oil in “everything” now.
