Step 1
Wash the arbi (colocasia) and boil it in a pressure cooker for 2-3 whistles. Once cooled, remove the water from the pan (be careful not to overcook it).
Step 2
Now, add mustard seeds, fenugreek seeds, and fennel seeds to a pan, lightly roast them over low heat, and then grind them coarsely.
Step 3
Peel the arbi, cut it into small pieces, and add it to the oil, sautéing it over low heat for 1-2 minutes.
Step 4
Now, add the coarsely ground spices and celery, along with salt, turmeric powder, red chili powder, asafoetida, and roasted cumin powder, and mix well. Add the mango powder and mix well.
Step 5
Now, remove from heat and serve the prepared arbi pickle with your favorite roti, puri, or paratha. Store it in a glass jar after it cools. It will keep in the refrigerator for 4-5 days.
