Hi There,
its unbearably hot and humid here. hope it rains tonight. i had this whole jack fruit to deal with. i had never cut it in my life, i know i have to use a lot of oil to do it. boy, was it difficult. it is very sweet, the fuit, and i made a little jam in the eve. In malyalam they call it chakka veratti.which can be used at a later stage to make chakka pradaman, payasam.My mother loves it, the fruit may not last for ten days, but the jam will if kept in the fridge.
G.sons school reopened. He was nervous as there will be a new teacher.should be ok in two days. Went to pick him up at the bus stop. The heat is killing.kale mega kale mega paani to bursavo. Made drumstick sambar for dinner. D.stick grows in the garden. Full of iron. Love.

Yes, the heat is killing here as well.
ReplyDeleteI love ripe jackfruit, although many people don't like the smell. I'm trying to imagine how the jam tastes. And the pradaman.
I had a Bengali dish with drumstick today.
I hope your grandson likes his new teacher!
oooh jackfruit. yes it does involve tons of oil or you end up with that white milky stuff. hope you enjoyed the fruit. Did you also end up boiling/steaming the seeds in salt water. they taste pretty good.
