Taro Balls

This are one of my favourite deep-fried food among so many others. These taro balls are made from grated taro, sugar, black bean, bread, ginger and some flour mixed together and then deep fried. These are the best, super crunchy on the outside, and you can take the taro and the sweetness with the ginger and salty black bean complimenting each other. These are so mouth-watering and I tell you you just can't get enough. Once in a while is good.

Most recently I came across another taro deep fried style dumpling- the Honeycomb taro dumpling or deep fried taro puff which is a savoury version filled with pork filling. I have not tried it before, but I bet it tastes delicious.

I made taro smoothie by blending some cooked taro, milk and sugar and it tastes amazing.

Taro has such a distinct flavour, like pandan or red bean. They have unusual flavour but once you get to appreciate the taste, then I assure you, you would be keen to try any food with them in it.

This is the time I made the taro balls, which turned out pretty good.
