I love the smokiness flavour of this summer vegetable jack fruit aerials (seed). In this recipe I fried onion, garlic and green chilli separately. After cooking jack fruit seeds, at the serving time the dish is decorated with fried onion, garlic and green chilli to retain the smokiness flavour.

Superb taste…

Jack fruit seed: 150 gm
Onion: 1 onion (Medium)
Garlic: 4-5 clove
Mustard oil: 4 tablespoon
Chilli powder: 1 teaspoon
Turmeric powder: half teaspoon
Coriander powder: 1 teaspoon
Dry mango powder: ½ teaspoon
Black pepper powder: ½ teaspoon
Salt: 1 teaspoon (as per taste)
Green chilli: 2 no.
Cumin: half teaspoon

Remove dry layer of jack fruit seeds, chop it into four pieces into lengthwise, keep aside.

Heat remains of oil in a same pan, add cumin seeds sputter for few seconds; drop chopped and sliced garlic (remaining 50%), saute for few seconds add chilli powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder and salt immediately add chopped jack fruit, mix properly, cook on low flame with lid on.
Fry till vegetables are done, about 6-7 minutes (stir in between, so that it do not get burnt). Add black pepper powder and dry mango powder. Put off the flame; decorate with fried onion, garlic and green chilli.
