Frozen Arwi refers to frozen colocasia root (commonly known as taro root or arwi in Hindi). Arvi is a starchy tuber used in various dishes across Indian and South Asian cuisines. Freezing arvi helps preserve its freshness and allows it to be used throughout the year without worrying about it spoiling. How to Use Frozen Arwi: Frozen arvi can be used just like fresh arvi in many recipes: Arwi Sabzi: You can cook frozen arvi directly in a curry with spices such as cumin, turmeric, coriander, and garam masala. It will absorb the flavors and provide a satisfying, starchy component to the dish. Arwi with Potatoes: A common dish in many Indian households is arvi cooked with potatoes, creating a hearty combination. You can use frozen arvi to make this dish quickly. Arwi Fry: For a simple and crispy dish, shallow fry the frozen arvi pieces with cumin seeds, mustard seeds, and spices. Arwi Kofta Curry: Make arvi koftas (fried dumplings) and cook them in a rich curry made with onions, tomatoes, and spices. Arwi in Pulao or Biryani: Add frozen arvi to rice dishes like pulao or biryani for extra flavor and texture.
