Ingredients:
3 cups of breadfruit or kadachakka, peeled and cut into small cubes 1/3 cup of grated coconut 2-3 shallots / ulli 1/2 tsp of cumin seeds / jeerakam 2 green chillies 1/4 tsp of turmeric powder 2 tsp of coconut oil 1/4 tsp of mustard seeds A few curry leaves or a small bunch of coriander, chopped, for garnish
How to Make Breadfruit Thoran:
- Heat oil in a pan and add the mustard seeds. When they pop, add the cut breadfruit pieces, turmeric, and some salt.
- Sprinkle some water and cook partially covered on low flame until the breadfruit becomes tender – about 8-10 mins.
- Meanwhile, coarsely grind the coconut + shallots + cumin + green chillies without adding water
- Add to the cooked breadfruit and mix well. Let it cook for another 2-3 mins.
- Sprinkle curry leaves or chopped coriander leaves on top. Mix again, and remove from heat. Kadachakka thoran will also taste fabulous with rice and Kerala Sambar if serving it with chapati and dal is not really doing it for you.
