The Pepper-seasoned Creamy Jackfruit Curry

Jackfruit – kos in Sinhala – is one of the very few fruits-cum-vegetables that grow in Asia without a drop of chemicals. It is rich in protein, iron and calcium. This very creamy vegetarian curry, which is highlighted by the pepper, is specially prepared for lactating mothers.

A popular accompaniment with this is the sun-dried salted fish curry and tempered kankun
Ingredients
1. 250g raw jackfruit kernels with seeds
2. 1 onion, chopped
3. 3 – 4 green chilies, sliced, and if desired deseeded
4. 1 sprig curry leaves
5. 1” pandan leaf
6. ½ tsp salt
7. 1 tsp un-roasted curry powder
8. 1” cinnamon
9. 1 tsp black pepper kernels
10. 1 tbsp maldive fish flakes (optional)
11.

½ cup diluted coconut milk
12. 2 oz thick coconut milk
Serves 6

Method
1. Cut the kernels into thick, long strips and split the seeds into 3 – 4 slices
2. Put the kernels and all the ingredients except the thick coconut milk into a saucepan and bring to boil. Allow to simmer until the kernels are tender
3. Add the thick coconut milk and bring to boil again and leave for couple of minutes before removing from fire
 
Tip

Some cooks swear by ½ tsp of ground mustard added with the thick coconut milk!
