  • 500 g Young Jackfruit, Cut into small pieces
  • 700 ml Coconut Milk, Lite
  • Salt, To taste
  • ½ tsp Roasted Fenugreek Powder (Fenugreek roasted for 20 secs and crushed to powder using mortar & pestle)

Instructions
 

  • Add the coriander, cumin, fennel, fenugreek, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom pods, curry leaves, white rice, and black peppercorns to a heated flat pan. All of the ingredients should be dry-roasted over low heat until fragrant and transformed in color.
  • After roasting the spices dry, set them aside to cool. Pulverize every dry-roasted spice to a fine powder.
  • Add the red chili powder to the same pan and cook over low heat until it becomes brown.
  • Pour the coconut oil into a Pot and let it become heated. Add the fenugreek, cumin, and mustard seeds to the heated oil. Cook it for ten seconds.
  • Garlic should now be chopped and sautéed for ten seconds. Add chopped onions to this and heat until they turn golden.
  • Add the gorka, pandan, and curry leaves now. Simmer them for ten seconds.
  • Now add the roasted curry powder, chili powder, and turmeric powder. Could you give them a 30-second sauté?
  • Add the young jackfruit now. Coat the jackfruit with the spices after thoroughly mixing them.
  • Add salt and coconut milk to this now. Stir them well. After the jackfruit is thoroughly cooked, cover and continue cooking the curry. Repeatedly test with a fork to ensure the jackfruit is cooked in between. We cooked the jackfruit for around twenty minutes.
  • After the jackfruit is cooked, taste it and adjust the salt if necessary.
  • Sri Lankan curry made with jackfruit is ready. Savor with some steaming hot rice!
