Arbi Leafs

Arbi leaves, also known as taro or Colocasia esculenta, are dark green, heart-shaped leaves that are commonly used in traditional Indian cuisine. These versatile leaves are rich in essential nutrients like vitamins A and C, as well as minerals such as calcium and iron. Arbi leaves have a slightly nutty flavour and a firm texture, making them ideal for use in a variety of dishes.

In Indian cooking, Arbi leaves are often used to wrap and steam savoury fillings, such as spiced lentils or vegetables, to create delicious and healthy snacks. They can also be chopped and added to curries, soups, or stir-fries for an extra burst of flavour and nutrition.

When buying Arbi leaves, look for fresh, vibrant leaves with no wilting or yellowing. To store them, wrap the leaves in a damp paper towel and place them in a plastic bag in the refrigerator. Use them within a few days for the best flavour and texture.
