Jackfruit is a superfood and a healthy carbohydate. My daughter and mom are jackfruit fans. This is one of mom's favorite dishes and reminds her of her hometown.


Raw jackfruit, pitted - 1/2 kg
Water - 1 and 1/2 cup
Salt

For masala,
Coconut - 1/2, grated
Curry leaf - 1 or 2
Green chili - 4 or 5
Small onion - 2, peeled and diced
Cumin seeds - 1/4 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp

Clean jackfruit and cut into small pieces.

Grind masala to a rough paste.

Keep pressure cooker on stove with water. Add salt. Bring to boil. Add jackfruit. Close lid and cook for 1 whistle. Wait for a few minutes and remove lid.

Put masala in the middle. Close lid without the weight. Cook, 1 minute. Stir well to combine.
