A hundred times better than French Fries. More flavor, more crunch and more satisfying :)
Ingredients:
- 1 large Taro root, peeled and cut into fries size
- cooking oil for frying
- 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
- 1/2 teaspoon Ancho chile powder
- 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
Directions:
In a large skillet, heat the cooking oil over medium-high heat. Make sure you have enough oil to completely submerge the fries. Fry the taro root until they turn golden brown.
Using a strainer, transfer the fries into a large bowl.
Sprinkle immediately with salt and Ancho chili powder, and drizzle with lime juice. Toss all the ingredients together using large spoon until the spices are well distributed. Serve hot.
Those look awesome! I have made taro chips before, but never as fries. Great idea!

DeleteTry uwajimaya or central market (there's one in Shoreline, one in Mill Creek, one in Poulsbo). Or one place that I know for sure has taro is Viet Wah market in international district (I believe it's on Jackson st.)
Great alternative to regular fries. Yummy!
