- First, clean the taro. Hold them under the sink while scrubbing with a spone to scrape off all the hair.
- Steam the taro! For 10 minutes.
- Peel the taro, which should come easily after being steamed
- Chop them into about 1x1 chunks, all of the same size
- Now, time to fry them.
- Bring a wok to heat, add in oil.
- Now, critically: add some scallion whites(葱白) into the oil, make that oil scallion-y!
- Remove the scallion whites and add the taro chunks.
- Add some salt
- Add some 鸡粉 or 味精
- Stir it up and add a little bit of water
- Add a little bit of sugar
- Cover it, put the heat on medium and let it simmer for 10 minutes
- Lastly, after letting it simmer, add in the scallion greens!
