Chapua/Arbi in mustard gravy

Image
One of my fav meal combinations is Arbi/colocasia in mustard gravy with steaming hot rice. In Bihar, it is called Chapua. Why it is called so, the reason is the boiled and peeled Arbi is hand-pressed and marinated in masala and deep-fried. So hand-pressing in Bihar is called Chapna hence the name is Chapua. The taste resembles of fish in mustard gravy and the process of making is also same here for this dish. Its vegetarian fish dish for persons who do not eat Fish. I am posting this recipe on one of my dear friend request. Now let's move to the recipe- Ingredients - 1. whole Arbi - 10 small pieces 2. Onion chopped - 1 Piece 3. Tomato chopped - 1 small piece 4. Garlic  paste - 4 small spoon 5. Ginger paste - 2 small spoon 6. Green chili chopped - 2 pieces 7. Red chili powder - 1 small spoon 8. Turmeric powder - 2 Spoon 9. Pepper powder - 1 Spoon 10. Jeera/Cumin powder - 1 Spoon 11. Garam masala - 1 small spoon 12. Mustard soaked in water - 3 Spoon 13.
