  • Chop the bigger ones into 2 pieces and leave the smaller ones as it is.
  • Mix all the dry masalas,onions with arbi.
  • Grease a tray and put the masala arbi in it.
  • Grill at 200C for about 10 minutes or so, stirring once inbetween.
  • In a small pan, take 1 tsp of oil and add mustard seeds and fry till they start spluttering.
  • Pour over grilled arbi and mix well.
  • Garnish with chopped corainder leaves and serve with hot paranthas or phulkas.
