Jackfruit is one of the fruits that I really like to eat.
The fruit of it is not only eaten when it's ripe but it can be also prepared as a dish.
But not only that ,you can also boiled the seeds from the ripe jackfruit,it's is delicious .
In the country side , whenever we are running out of budget for our food allowance ,we usually find ways to feed our hungry tummy.
And jackfruit (not yet ripe)is one of the thing that we can prepare to our table.
For today's blog ,I am not only showing you the procedure of the dish but also I will be showing you some of our tradition way on cooking our food at the countryside.
Jackfruit as dish
Ingredients
-jackfruit not yet ripe
-coconut milk
-garlic
-onion
-bellpepper
-salt and seasoning
Procedure
First ,you have to peel off the jackfruit fruit , makes sure to wear gloves coz the jackfruit gum is so sticky.
But if it's happened that your hands got more gum ,you will just wash it with cooking oil or baby oil and soap.
After peeling it ,slice it into bite size then wash with clean water and boiled it for about 30 minutes .
While waiting for it to boiled and cook,let's prepare the coconut milk ,since I am using the fresh coconut milk as it's only available in our house ,but it's good since its fresh.
I first removed the coconut husk.
Then cut into half ,but wait don't throw the water ,it's delicious as it's so fresh.
Now it's time to make a coconut milk by using our grater ,some people are using blender or food processor but we still using this grater and we called it "kaguran".
In making the coconut milk ,you have to squeeze the shredded coconut.Just add a half cup of water then set aside the milk.And for the second squeeze ,I just added two cups of water.
Now it's time to prepare the spices ,just sliced all the spices of what you desire .
The jackfruit I boiled is already cooked ,it is nearly to ripe anyway haha but still it's good coz it's gives a sweet taste too.
Now ,you can saute the spices you prepared then followed the boiled jackfruit then add salt and seasoning to taste and add the second squeeze of the coconut milk.
After 10 minutes ,add the separate coconut milk from the first squeeze then taste it according to your taste and let it boil again and it ready to serve...
And our jackfruit dish is ready!!!
