Our summer vacations during school and college days were not complete without preparing raw jackfruit and ripen jackfruit papad with Amma in my native. We have bought a big jackfruit recently in namma Bengaluru and it had plenty of thick pulpy pods. I wanted to recreate the memory for my daughter, so decided to make the papad. Sun god blessed the process with good sunlight too.
Its pretty simple. Please try preparing and share your comments.
Ingredients
Jackfruit pods - 20 to 25
Green chillies - 8 to 10
Salt to taste
Method
Chop
the ripe jackfruit pods into small pieces. Steam cook the same. Allow it to cool.
Prepare chilli paste. Grind the steam cooked jackfruit into fine paste.
I grinded this using mixer grinder. Its easily doable. You can do it in grinding stone as well.
Add salt and chilli paste to the jackfruit paste and mix well.
Spread the jackfruit paste on a thick plastic sheet and dry it under the sun for about 3 to 4 days. Number of days depends on intensity of sunlight.
You can then chop into small pieces and eat it as it is as a snack.
Please note that this papad is eaten as it is and not to be fried in oil.
