Dev, can you get jack fruit seeds separately in India?
Here you have to buy the whole fruit to get the seeds.

So I will post the recipes without pictures for you.
Thanks and take care, Kugan98

Here in blore, we used to get the seeds separately... nowin cbe, my sister has a jackfruit tree in her farm... so everytime a jackfruit ripens, we get free supply of both the seeds and fruit... I don't like the fruit... so I'll collect the seeds...;) :lol:

done till pg 45 of kk2...:)

kugan, dev

i bought fresh arrow root from market (thinking that mangai inchi). what to do with this fresh arrow root, any suggestion please.

Yes, uncle, Dev gave a very good tip and did a very big job.
Many will benefit from her hard work.
Thanks to our Dev with a very big heart.

Thanks Dev, for all trouble you are taking.
You are very lucky to have a sister who supplies
you with jack fruit. I love jack fruit and it's seeds.
I just love to boil the seeds with salt and start munching:-D

I will post the podimas recipe first.
Have to dig in old files for the recipes.
As we seldom cook these recipes, since we do not get the seeds here.
I should learn a lesson to take snaps of what ever I cook.
It will come handy one day.
Thanks, Kugan98

Selviem, I have not cooked with arrow root.
My aunt told me that you can stir fry, or make chips.
It will be like our tapioca. Try them Selviem.
