  • Pan-fried taro cake Make Tips

    1. The key to making a good taro cake is that the batter shouldn't be too thin. The ratio of water to flour is approximately 1:1, and mixing the batter with boiling water yields better results. 2. If you have Chinese sausage and dried shrimp at home, you can dice them, briefly stir-fry them, and then add them to the shredded taro to stir-fry together; this makes the cake even tastier. (Since this was my first attempt and I was afraid of wasting ingredients if it failed, I didn't include them.) 3. The amount of taro can be increased or decreased, as long as the batter is sufficient to bind the taro together. I used a relatively large amount of taro in this cake, so you can adjust it according to your own taste.
