Instructions
Peel the taro with a sharp knife and then cut into halves. You may need to put a little bit more force over it.
Firstly slice the taro into slices about 1/4 inch thick. Then lay down the slices and cut them into 1/4 inch strips, similar to potato fries. Try to cut them into similar sizes.
Deep-frying method:
Place about three inches of oil into your deep fryer or a deep-bottomed pot. Heat this to 320 degrees.
Add the chips or fries in a single layer and deep-fry until they turn golden brown (this should take between four and five minutes).
Remove the chips with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate or baking sheet.
Oven method:
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F and prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Toss the chips or fries in olive oil before arranging them on the prepared baking sheet in a single layer.
Bake for about 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown, flipping halfway through.
Air-frying method:
Toss the chips or fries in olive oil and then place them in a single layer in your air fryer.
Set it to 390 degrees F and cook for 20 minutes turning twice during the process.
serve with sriracha chili sauce or salt and pepper.
