Generally it is not the first choice of people for vegetables even not the second choice. But it has great health benefits which we can't ignore.

It is rich in Vitamins,Minerals and has many healing properties. It is very useful in getting rid of many diseases.It is rich in carbohydrates. It contains high amount of dietary fibres which are very useful in digestive process. It acts as antioxidant which removes toxins from body. It has many more benefits still apart from above mentioned.

Here I am sharing one recipe of arbi which is very healthy and easy to cook and would surely be liked by everyone. My husband doesn't like to see this vegetable in food on dining table. When I served this roasted Arbi Fritters in snacks to my husband, he was not able to recognize this vegetable and finished the plate within 5 minutes. His comment was that it is the only  recipe of Arbi which he liked and can have it more any time. My three years son also liked it and joined us to have it as he is also very choosy about food.

So you people would also like to try this recipe at least once.This recipe is very healthy version because there is no oil in this. This is baked version but it can be deep fried as per preference. I generally prefer  baked version of food so I made it baked version. It taste great in either way. So here is the recipe.
