We get even in winter the jackfruit seeds in Indian groceries, but it has been a long i bought them, this time i picked half kg of this jackfruit seeds and i wanted to make them some stir fry by cooking along with brinjal chunks and drumstick pieces..This is one of my mom's signature dish and she used to prepare this combination very often when i was kid..I wont say that i dont get Indian veggies rarely here, but we guys goes rarely to Indian groceries coz my H dont like the Indian groceries at all, he can go to any mall to get anything but purchasing at Indian groceries is quite an hard task for him, so we guys try to go atleast twice a month eventhough we are just living quite near to Indian groceries...I prepared this curry yesterday for our lunch and this curry goes prefectly awesome with rasam, i can just live with this curry and rasam everyday just love it that much..Delicious stir fry goes awesome even just along with rice and papads.
1/4kg Brinjal (sliced lengthwise)
25nos Jackfruit seeds (cooked)
2nos Drumsticks (chopped as medium sized pieces)
1no Onion (chopped finely)
2nos Tomatoes (chopped)
1tsp Mustard seeds+Cumin seeds
1tsp Chilly powder
1/2tsp Coriander powder
Salt

Curry leaves
To Grind:
3tbsp Grated coconut
1tsp Cumin seeds
1tsp Poppy seeds
Grind all the ingredients given in the list to grind as fine paste with enough water..Heat enough oil, let crack the mustard seeds and cumin seeds..now add the chopped onions,curry leaves and chopped tomatoes, saute until the onions turns transculent..now add the drumsticks pieces, already cooked jackfruit seeds, cook for few minutes, add the chopped brinjal pieces, saute until they get shrinks a bit..
Finally add the chilly powder, coriander powder, salt and grounded paste to the veggies, cook everything in medium flame with lid closed, until the veggies get well cooked..

ReplyDeleteNearest Indian grocery is about 70miles for us, a good store that is. We go once in 6months, there is one nearby for emergency supplies. My H is okay with Indian grocery shopping but my lids never come inside, they don't like the smell of spices we love somuch! :D
