Arum Roots ( Kachur Mura, কচুর মুড়া) 500-550g€6.49Arum roots, also known as taro roots or colocasia roots, are starchy tubers that come from the arum plant, specifically the species Colocasia esculenta. They are commonly used in various cuisines around the world and are known for their creamy texture and earthy flavor.
Here's a basic recipe for preparing arum roots:
Ingredients:
- Arum roots (taro roots) - 2-3 medium-sized
- Water - enough to cover the roots for boiling
- Salt - to taste
Instructions:
-
Start by peeling the outer skin of the arum roots with a vegetable peeler or a knife. Be cautious as the skin can be slightly rough and itchy for some individuals. It's a good idea to wear gloves or wash your hands immediately after peeling.
-
Once peeled, rinse the arum roots under cold water to remove any dirt or residue.
-
Cut the arum roots into even-sized pieces, about 1-inch thick. This will ensure that they cook evenly.
-
Place the arum root pieces in a pot and add enough water to cover them. Add a pinch of salt to the water to enhance the flavor.
-
Bring the water to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the roots simmer for approximately 15-20 minutes or until they become tender. You can check the doneness by piercing the roots with a fork or knife; they should easily slide through when cooked.
-
Once the roots are cooked, drain the water and let them cool slightly.
-
At this point, you can use the cooked arum roots in various ways. They can be mashed, sliced, or cubed for use in soups, stews, curries, or stir-fries. They can also be used in traditional dishes like taro fries or taro cakes.
Remember, arum roots contain calcium oxalate crystals, which can cause skin irritation or itchiness for some people. It's important to handle them with care and wash your hands thoroughly after handling them.
Additionally, arum leaves, known as taro leaves, are also commonly used in cooking in many cultures. They are often used to make dishes like taro leaf stew or wrapped around fillings to make taro leaf rolls.
