    | 1. While buying the Taro, ensure it is white and juicy inside and not pink and dry. When the Taro is cut, there should be visible presence of sap. | 2. De-skin the Taro and cut it into 3/4 inch sized cubes and soak it in water for 10mts. | 3. Add water to a wok and when it starts boiling, add the Taro, turmeric and salt. | 4. When the water starts boiling again, turn the stove to medium fire for 20mts. | 5. In the meanwhile, ground the coconut and birds eye chillies into a paste. Not too fine. | 6. When taro starts getting soft, add ground mixture to the wok and mix well and set it on low fire and let it simmer for 10mts. | 7. Add the brown sugar and mix well and leave it to simmer until all the liquids evaporate. (At no point of time should the wok be covered). | 8. Remove it off the gas and add the yogurt. | 9. Fry the mustard, fenugreek seed and dry chillies (chopped into 2/3 pcs.) and add to the wok and mix well. | 10. Serve with Indian bread (Roti/Chapati/Naan) or Rice. | 11. Fried/roasted papadum will be a good accompaniment. | 12. Don't forget to bless the Chef. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
