5 steps

01
Place the taro root in a pot with the water and bring to a simmer. Cook until the taro is completely tender but still holds its shape, then drain and cool.
02
When the taro is cool enough to handle, cut or break it into bite-size pieces and place it in a bowl with the onion.
03
Whisk together the coconut milk, lime juice, salt, and black pepper until smooth.
04
Pour the dressing over the taro and toss gently so the pieces do not break up too much.
05
Scatter the coconut meat over the salad before serving.
