Arbi Naveli is an exquisite preparation of deep-fried colocasia slices floated in a tongue-tickling gravy.


The tomato-based gravy is perked up with a special masala paste that features poppy seeds and melon seeds. The masala paste gives not only an exotic flavour but also a creamy consistency to the gravy.



Serve it hot with rotis or rice to make a homely and satisfying meal.
