Add a photoKathal Ki Sabzi Recipe is a succulent dry preparation of unripe jackfruit cooked with plenty of red onions and spices. The dish has a fibrous texture and delicious taste to it, hence it can be labeled as mock meat also. The term vegetarian prompt a train of thoughts about my mother, who is a devoted herbivore.
Ingredients
- 500 gram unripe jackfruit
- oil for deep frying
- 3 - 4 large size onion, roughly chopped
- an inch piece of ginger, peeled
- 3 - 4 cloves of garlic
- 2 - 3 medium size tomato
- 2 tsp coriander powder
- salt to taste
- 1 tsp chilli powder
- 2 tsp turmeric powder
- 1 tsp garam masala
Directions
- To peel the jackfruit, first grease your fingers well with mustard oil. Place a bowl of mustard oil next to you while cutting the jackfruit, as you will need to smear your palms with oil from time to time. Oil prevents jackfruit fibre from sticking in your hand.
- With a sharp knife remove the skin of the jackfruit. Cut the inner white colored fibrous part into big chunks. Remove any thick stem in the centre, before cutting big chunks into smaller pieces.
- Do not wash the jackfruit after cutting into small pieces. Wipe off the dirt, if there any with a clean kitchen towel. The tender seeds inside the jackfruit can also be added in the sabzi, remove the seed skin if you prefer so.
- Now heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat. In small batches deep fry the jackfruit pieces till light brown in color. Drain in an oil absorbing paper and keep aside
- To prepare the Kathal Ki Sabzi, first pulse the chopped tomato along with ginger, garlic in mixer to make paste using little water.
- Heat 2 tablespoon of oil in a heavy bottom kadhai over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and saute over medium heat till onion turn light brown in color.
- Next add the tomato paste and once again saute till oil separates from the masala.
- Add salt, chilli powder, turmeric, garam masala, stir to combine and saute for few more minutes.
- Add the deep fried jackfruit in the kadhai, stir to combine so that jackfruit pieces are evenly coated with the spice mix. Cover with a lid and let the sabzi cook over low heat for 15 - 20 minutes, stirring occasionally in between. During this time the jackfruit pieces absorb the flavor of the spices. Check for doneness and turn off the heat.
- Serve Kathal Ki Sabzi hot, garnished with coriander leaves.
