I love patra and the curry made out of it. My grandmother was an expert in that. We don't get it here. We do get arbi though and I like that too. Cooking it is a tedious job and one needs to add lot of lime juice to avoid itching while cleaning it or even in the dish so that our tongue doesn't itch later.

@ankurdini One needs a lot of patience to cook patra and definitely a skill learned with practice to have it come our neat and yummy. It is actually an art.

We call it Elephant's Ear in my part of the US. I grow it in pots in my house and outside in my flowerbed. I once cooked some of it to see how it tastes and didn't like it. I think it looks beautiful as a houseplant, though.
