196. Raw Jackfruit Curry

Ingredients :

Raw Jackfruit -18 palam Powdered Salt ¾ palam Gingely Oil - 1 ½ palam Turmeric Powder - ⅛ palam Gingely Oil -1 ½ palam Chilly - ¼ palam Mustard Seed -¼ palam Black Gram -½ palam Soaked Groundnut -3 palam

  • 1. If we cut the outer layer of a jackfruit inside it should be white in colour. Because that fruit only we can use it for making curry. If it is yellow in colour it will not cook fast.
  • 2. Cut 3/4th of the jackfruit skin and apply gingely oil. Boil 5 padi water in a vessel which can hold the jack fruit and water fully. After it is boiled put the sliced jackfruit into it and close with a lid and leave it for 1 hour.
  • 3. Then drain the water and using a long sharp knife powder the jackfruit. While cutting discard the middle stem part and cut the remaining part or we can cut it without cooking the jackfruit.
  • 4. Boil 1 padi water in a lead coated vessel and add the gingely oil and turmeric powder and add the powdered jackfruit and cook it with a closed lid. Take the jackfruit out of the fire and discard the water.
  • 5. Then add the salt and stir it nicely. After 5 minutes take the ghee or oil in a vessel which has not become sticky by frequent cooking and heat it.
  • 6. Then temper with mustard seed,black gram,soaked groundnut and chilly as described in the 22nd recipe. Add this to the jackfruit and stir it nicely and serve.
