Colocasia or Taro root

Colocasia is the only vegetable the twins get to eat fried. For now at least. Cooked in a liquid they tend to be slimy which the twins absolutely hate. A traditional Indian recipe calls for them to be stewed in tamarind which reduces the slimy-ness. The stew though is spicy and the twins are not at that spice level yet.

When I tried to bake them, they came out rubbery! So any tips on cooking them slime-less will be very welcome.
