Jackfruit Indian Curry; Kerala style. Wanted to try making curry with jackfruit. Only a low rating for first try. Though it could be that the can I had was pretty old. Might try again another time … but instead of boiling the jackfruit (from can) in turmeric water (as per video from Sanjeev), I might try seasoning and air frying them first.
Jackfruit Kerala Curry
Note to Self: photos will need to be updated. Unfortunately the jackfruit kind of “disappeared” in this photo. Plus I added brinjal tonight … which might be confusing, pictorially.
