    Made this last night, and had some on toast for lunch, its really good!! I had to search for the taro, finally found some, but only about the size of an egg, and $10 a kg!!!while it was interesting to taste a new veg, I think that orange sweet potato would work well too. Used Chicken tenderloins, and fresh tomatoes. Will make this often!made for Aussie swap May 2011
