Kochur loti Colocasia stem which is very famous in Bangladesh. It can be cooked veg or non veg. Some of them like to cook adding with prawn, shrimp, dried fish. Some people like to cook adding cooked paste, mustard paste, couscous paste, kasaundi or with plain onion seeds.

Anyway it gives good taste. It's rare found in Uttar Pradesh. There was a Bengali traditional Paush Mela in Lucknow it was found there. So I got the chance to experiment.
