    Masala arbi is a dry sabzi recipe made with Arbi. Arbi in English is known as colocasia or taro roots. The Arbi ki sabji which I am sharing with you all today is delicious crispy fried Punjabi arbi recipe that tastes almost similar to a potato roast.

    Masala Arbi

    Colocasia or Taro roots are commonly known as Arbi in Hindi is made in different ways. Most common is making an Arbi stir fry by cutting peeled vegetable into thin strips and then frying it in hot oil. This is also known as dry arbi masala curry.

    Another way of making Arbi masala is the way I am cooking it here in this recipe. This can be served with chapati or rice as a side dish. Otherwise, you can simply enjoy this as it is. I sometimes serve it as an appetiser or teatime snack as well.

    But as I said I often serve it as a side dish with any dal and chapati for a delicious Indian meal. This recipe of Arbi masala is super easy to make. The only thing you have to make sure is to know How long to boil it before stir frying it in a pan. Also, arbi is a bland vegetable by itself so you need to season and spice it well.

    The main flavours in my arbi masala are ajwain (carom seeds) and fennel seeds powder which makes it quite aromatic. The taste of ajwain adds a nice texture and warm taste. Try it once and you will know what I mean 🙂

    Arbi Masala Recipe Notes

    • Thoroughly wash the arbi first to get rid of dirt if there is any.
    • While pressure cooking, make sure you parboil the arbi, otherwise it can quickly turn mushy.
    • I have fried the arbi in the pan, you can make it in Air fryer as well but I find that version little too much dry so I prefer to make arbi roast in a pan.
