Sometimes I wonder about the bounty of produce that Mother Nature has for us. While some fruits and veggies are staple for humans; there are some which are unusual, yet absolutely worthy. Jimikand or Suran is one such. Owing to its appearance resembling an elephant’s foot, it is rightly termed as the elephant foot yam as well. Jimikand Chips a.k.a Yam Chips is one yummy recipe which is made with this tuber easily found everywhere.
