How to make?
Pressure cook the taro root for 2 whistles, cool, peel and mash.
Add all the masala powder to the mashed taro root and mix well.
Add the besan flour and mix well, this will absorb any excess  moisture and also make the cutlet crispy.
Divide it into 6 to 8 balls and make flatten them to be shaped like patty or cutlet.
Pat this on a plate of bread crumbs, so that it is covered with bread crumbs on all sides.
Take a flat pan, heat a tblspn of oil in the pan and gently place the cutlets.
Shallow fry them on both sides till golden brown in color.
Serve hot with tomato ketchup.


It makes a great tea time snack. You can also place them between burger buns and have them as patties.
You can also try baking them till golden brown. But shallow frying does not consume much oil,I used totally 2 - 3 tbsp of oil for making all the cutlets.
