CHEPPANKIZHANGU ROAST (VARUVAL)

Colocassia /Taro root is called as Cheppankizhangu  in Tamil. Cheppankizhangu roast is a perfect accompaniment for Mor Kuzhambu.Typically this is deep fried. However I prefer shallow frying in a Tawa.

Ingredients:

Seppankizhangu (Arbi)       10 (appx 3 cups when chopped)
