Directions:
- Scrub the outside of the taro.
- Place in a pot with enough water to half cover the taro.
- Cover and boil for about 1 1/2 hours, or until tender. (Make sure the taro is cooked very well, for the starches can irritate and scratch the throat if not cooked through completely).
- Remove and cool.
- Peel away the outside skin and chop taro into large cubes. (Cooked taro at this point can be mashed and formed into cakes that are delicious sauteed with butter).
- Place the coconut milk and the taro cubes into a saucepan and heat thoroughly.
- There should be enough milk to just cover the taro.
- Taste during cooking to see if taro needs more salt.
