- Drain the jackfruit and pull apart the strands using your hands or a fork.
- Then, add it to the pan together with turmeric, dried thyme, paprika and salt.
- Continue cooking for around 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the jackfruit starts to crisp up and brown.
- Add coconut milk and vegetable stock.
- Bring to a light simmer, cover and cook for 15 minutes, stirring once every couple of minutes, until the sauce is thick and creamy.
- Serve immediately with rice and any other side dishes of your choice.
Yield: 4 servings, with about 40 min cooking time
Comments: 11/18/2024 - I reduced the
amount of spices and used powdered rather than
crushing the seeds myself: 2 teaspoons cumin, 2 teaspoons coriander, 1/4 teaspoon
crushed red pepper flakes, 2 teaspoons garlic powder, 2 teaspoons ground ginger,
1 teaspoon turmeric, 1 teaspoon thyme, 1 teaspoon paprika, and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
Preparation took about 1 1/4 hours, and the result was quite liquid, more like soup.
Served with rice and naan, we both enjoyed it and got three meals from it.
