Tender jackfruit also known as Kathal in Hindi or Kadgi in my mother tongue Konkani is used in the preparation of a variety of dishes. Posting a simple stir fry seasoned with garlic today.
Ingredients:
500 gms tender jackfruit deskinned
5 dry red chillies broken into bits
2 tbsps coconut oil
15 cloves of garlic crushed
Salt.
Method:
Cut the deskinned tender jackfruit into bite sized pieces. Wash and pressure cook them with salt and just enough water to two whistles. Once the pressure has released open the lid and check if they are cooked. If slightly under cooked, do not pressure cook them again. They get mushy. Heat oil in a pan. Add the garlic and roast on a slow flame till they turn a golden brown. Add the chilly bits, toss and tip in the tender jackfruit pieces. Cover and cook till they are done. Serve with rice and dal.
