Steps

1

Apply some mustard oil in your hands & knife & peel off the skin of arbi.
2

But don’t wash them now because they will release more lace.
3

Then chop Arbi in disc shapes, then sprinkle 2 Teaspoon Salt on it & mix them properly.
4

Now let them rest for 10 minutes, so that Arbi releases lace or moisture & after washing it becomes dry.
5

After 10 minutes, when lace or moisture is released from Arbi, wash it properly & immediately dry it with a cloth.
6

Chop Onion very finely & Ginger in sticks.
7

Then take a tadka pan, add 2 Table Spoon Mustard Oil in it & keep the gas on medium flame.
8

When oil gets heated up, add 1 Table Spoon Besan in it & roast it for 1-2 minutes, till it becomes into a paste.
9

This will help in sticking of spices on surface of arbi.
10

Now take a kadhai, add 1/2 Big Spoon Mustard Oil in it & keep the gas on high flame to burn the oil first.
11

When smoke starts coming out kadhai, turn off the gas & let the oil cool down a bit.
12

After some time again turn on the gas & keep it on medium flame.
13

Then add Khade Masale in it & let them sizzle.
14

When they start sizzling, add finely chopped onions in it & cook them till they turn into golden brown in colour.
15

After 2-3 minutes, when they are 60-80% cooked, add 1 Table Spoon Ginger Garlic Paste & 1/2 Teaspoon Haldi Powder in it & roast them for 1 minute.
16

After 1 minute, add chopped Arbi in it & roast it in onions for 3-4 minutes till they develop a surface but don’t add salt at this time or they will start releasing lace or moisture again.
17

After 3-4 minutes, add spices mix in it with roasted Besan paste & mix them properly.
18

Now cover the lid & cook them for 4-5 minutes on low flame so that Arbi becomes soft.
19

After 4-5 minutes, open the lid & check whether Arbi has become soft or not, if not cook them for more 2 minutes.
20

After 2 minutes, in the end add finely chopped dhaniya leaves & 1 Teaspoon Garam Masala in it & mix them properly.
