Fruit...JackFruit!

Are u confused? No it's not chicken. It might look like chicken but no. It's none other than Jackfruit that I boiled and stir fried.I don't know if some people are fond of Jackfruit, but I certainly...without any doubt...adore Jackfruit. Whether it is fried or in any curry, it's simply tasty. On that note,  Jackfruit is also Caitanya Mahaprabhu's favorite. He is the incarnation of Lord Krsna  who appeared on earth 500 years ago and He was always in a benevolent mood and of kind nature. The true meaning of how to love and serve God can be inspired by Him.


To make the Jackfruit have a creamy texture and taste, I added a couple of potatoes in it. When cooking Jackfruit, you must always put it in the pressure cooker for a few minutes so as it softens. Else you'll be having semi-cooked Jackfruit on your plate. 

As you can see, there's neither bread nor rice in the dish. Dinner's plate should always remain light and I try to make sure I incorporate atleast one salad in the menu. 
I also cut the maize into slices as a change but depending on your choice, u can have it as a whole. You can also add butter, mustard or mayonnaise on it depending on your choice. And here you are, a light, tasty and pure vegetarian meal.
