Making green jackfruit curry - new superfood meat substitute we have been eating for years!

  • Jackfruit has emerged as one of the new superfoods, but, like with so many other emerging superfoods, we used to eat this when it was in season almost as a staple. With time and changing diets jackfruit did become less popular - why eat a meat substitute when you can eat meat and its easier to prepare - but it is slowly becoming more popular as now as well!
    Ingredients:
    1/2 the jackfruit (will serve 8-10 people)
    To boil:
    1 tsp rough salt
    1/2 tsp hurdee powder (tumeric)
    1/4 cup oil
    For braising:
    2 med onions, sliced
    3 med tomatoes, chopped
    1/2 cup oil
    1 tsp crushed ginger and garlic
    fresh thyme
    handful of curry leaves
    2 tbs mixed masala
    1 tsp hurdee powder (tumeric)
    1 tsp mustard seeds
    1 tsp jeera (cumin) seeds
    1 tsp somph (fennel) seeds
    1/2 tsp methi (fenugreek) seeds
    1 tsp dhania (coriander) seeds
    1/2 tsp elaichi (cardamom) powder
    2 cinnamon sticks
    1 tsp rough salt (to taste)
    Serve with hot roti or puri

      @GaithreeDeviLuckan  Рік тому

      Hi. We used 1/2 the jackfruit we had at the beginning of the video. That is sufficient to feed 6-8 people so the spices we used in this video should be a good start. Adjust for your spiciness preference and salt preference.
      All the ingredients used are also in the description of the video as well.

    • @GaithreeDeviLuckan

      You can give the recipe a shot with the canned jackfruit, except you may want to skip the step of steaming. Canned jackfruit is a lot softer and will also cook faster in the curry…
