‘Patra’ (In Gujarati) or ‘Pathrode’ (In Konkani) is a delicious filling snack made with colocasia (Arvi/taro) leaves. It is robust with flavors…savory, spicy and sweet all at the same time. Serve these patra ‘Steamed’ as a healthier snack option or ‘Shallow fry’ for slight crunch, tastes yummy both ways. It also teams up very well with the regular Indian or Gujarati thali as one of the snack option.
When making ‘Patra’ follow 2 rules…first, make the roll tightly and second, do not miss to add dry mango powder (Amchur) in the filling. This reduces natural bitterness of the leaves.
Did you know, colocasia also known as ‘Arbi’ or ‘Taro’ is a starch rich taproot that is used to make variety of dishes. The leaves are also edible and a significant source of vitamin B6, C, dietary fibers, copper, potassium, niacin, copper and iron.
