Products Description

Kochu Pata, or Colocasia leaf, is the edible leaf of the taro plant (Colocasia esculenta). It is widely used in Bengali and other South Asian cuisines for its unique texture and flavor. The large, heart-shaped leaves are rich in dietary fiber, vitamins A and C, and essential minerals such as potassium and iron. Kochu Pata is commonly cooked in curries, stir-fries, or even steamed. In Bengali cooking, it is often paired with mustard oil, spices, and sometimes fish or meat. The leaves are also known for their anti-inflammatory properties and are used in traditional medicine for various health benefits.
