8. sprinkle ¼ tsp turmeric powder, ½ tsp red chili powder and ½ tsp sambar powder. if you don't have sambar powder, then add ¼ tsp coriander powder and ¼ tsp garam masala powder.
9. add 1 tbsp rice flour. if you don't have rice flour, then skip it.
10. stir again very well so that the spice powders and rice flour are evenly mixed.
11. add salt as required.
12. stir again and on a low flame, roast the arbi roots till they get start getting crisp and golden. turn over and roast the other side too.
13. here the colocasia roots are done. i cooked for about 10 minutes on a low flame, turning each arbi slice at intervals for even roasting and browning.
14. this step is optional and only if you like coriander leaves. sprinkle 1 tbsp chopped coriander leaves and stir. if you like a little tang, then add 1 tsp lime juice or dry mango powder and stir well.
