If using fresh taro leaves, wash them thoroughly and blanch in boiling water for 5 minutes. Drain and squeeze out excess water. Chop finely. If using frozen, thaw and squeeze out excess water, then chop.

Heat butter or oil in a pan over medium heat. Sautรฉ the chopped onion until softened, about 5 minutes. Add minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.

Add the chopped taro leaves to the pan with the onion mixture. Stir well to combine.
