chakkakkuru mulakittathu / jack fruit seeds curry
Ingredients
Jack fruit seeds / Chakkakkuru - 1 cup,
chilly powder - 2 tea spoon,
turmeric powder - 1/2 tea spoon,
tamarind water - made with one lemon size tamarind in two cup water,
curry leaves - few,
salt,
mustard seeds,
coconut oil -1 table spoon. (Instead of tamarind we can use raw mango, here mango - 1 is enough)
Method
Uncover and peel the seeds.
Cut into two. Cook with tamarind water , powders and salt.
Pressure cook till done.
Mash the seeds to make a semi thick solution.
Add little more water if needed.
Boil again.
Heat oil ,splutter 1 tea spoon mustard seeds , add curry leaves, pour into the solution.
Goes well with rice and chapati.
A moru curry or other yellow curries plus rice will be a good combination with this curry.
Hi Seena,
ReplyDeleteI got jackfruit from our neighbour and soon searched your blog and got this nice and simple recipe. I prepared this curry yesterday night, it came out very well, of course i did reduce the chilly powder to 1tsp.
You know, my hubby asked me its very good, from where did u get the recipe? i said from Seena.. he says.. Seena ulladondu rekshapettu..alle. yes indeed!!
Nimi , your comment brought a big smile.. :)
ReplyDeleteathey, this recipe is mom's favourite, and since this is chakka season, most of the days she is preparing this curry.. but I don't feel bored of it, I always love it with rice.. :)
Hi,
ReplyDeleteI had some Jackfruit seeds and was looking for a recipe without raw mango. I found your recipe very interesting and have tried it out. It's a good variation! The tamarind taste is just great with the jackfruit seed.
