    I love Arbi fries and finding another way to make this delicious Arbi Fry was just perfect. This has been in drafts for so long that I really wonder why I haven't spoken about it.  Making this in the microwave works out so simple and quick.

    After deciding on 365 days of Microwave cooking, I was thinking I should find as many possible recipes that can fit into this mode. Since I have a Microwave Convection oven, it gives the advantage of baking it both in microwave and convection mode. Micro mode gets this cooked quick while putting it on the convection mode ensures it stays crisp and not tough or hard.

    I came back home after a week's trip to San Francisco, visited my sister, and attended BlogHer'sConference too. It was a fun-filled week and five days passed quickly. My sister and BIL ensured I had a great time, still, I missed home and was only happy getting back fast. I had that feeling the moment the plane was landing on Kathipara Junction and cursed myself for keeping away just that moment. This was my first trip ever on my own, so I was excited as a kid. Will write more about the trip in my next post.

    Meanwhile, enjoy this recipe which was shared by the MW Chef I was talking about. I adapted her recipe to suit our palate.
    Baked Arbi in Microwave
    Boil Arbi in water for 8 minutes

    Peel the arbi and chop into 1 inch pieces. Mix the arbi in the masala and keep aside for 5 mins. Then spread on the tray and bake for 10 minutes.

    Toss it around in between and continue baking in micro mode.

    Serve it with Rice and Sambar.

    Baked Arbi in Microwave 

    How to make Baked Arbi in Microwave | In both Micro and Convectional cooking mode

    Wash and boil Arbi in water for 8 minutes in micro mode.
    Peel the skin and cut into 1" pieces.
    Then, take the Arbi in a bowl along with the other ingredients and mix well. Keep it aside for 5 mins.
    Spread the arbi on a microwave-safe tray and microwave for 10 minutes. Keep tossing around in intervals.
    If you want a crispier arbi, pre-heat your convectional oven for 15 mins at 50 degrees C.
    Then, spread the baked arbi again for 5 minutes in convectional mode.

    Notes

    Baking this in both Micro and Convectional mode ensures the arbi comes out crisper.
    Only about 1 - 2 tsp of cooking oil is required for baking this, so it makes it so healthy.

      Hi Valli, I am popping here after a long break. Lovely to see you as active as ever! Did you come to New York -0 if you did I will not forgive you for not getting in touch!
      The arbi recipe looks great, with barely any oil. Will definitely give it a try.
