I've been making this recipe ever since I got married. Boiling the taro is pretty standard, but stir-frying it afterwards makes it even more tender.

When coating the taro and chicken in flour, put the ingredients in a plastic bag to keep your hands clean.
Since you're frying it coated in flour, the sauce will thicken nicely. Recipe by Sanbikinokobutamama
