Coorgi Jackfruit Curry

Young jackfruit (chakke) curry — unripe jackfruit chunks cooked in a thick coconut gravy spiced with black pepper and coriander seeds, finished with kachampuli for tartness. The young jackfruit has a meaty texture that shreds and absorbs the spiced coconut gravy deeply. A prized vegetarian preparation of Kodava households, eaten with kadumbuttu.
