"In the past few days, I have been busy with training for a stage play, so I have missed some home chores. I couldn't even put aside the groceries from the supermarket. That's why I started doing those things as soon as Bimal left home in the morning. At that time, our next-door neighbor Damayanti's daughter brought me a baby jackfruit. Damayanti is very kind. Her parents brought it when they visited her, and because she knows we like baby jackfruit, she sent it to us.
Bimal likes baby jackfruit curry. So, I decided to make it for lunch. First, I cut the baby jackfruit into slices, then removed the shell and cleaned off the milk. Then I cut it into small pieces. I put some lime slices into a bowl of water and added the baby jackfruit pieces to clean them well. After that, I put them into a clay pot. Cooking in a clay pot makes it taste better. I set the pot aside, broke open a ripe coconut, and grated it. Even though I'm a bit lazy, I knew I needed to add both thick and thin coconut milk to make the curry taste good, so I did it.
After getting the thick and thin coconut milk, I took the clay pot containing the baby jackfruit and added turmeric powder, dill seed, roasted chili powder, roasted curry powder, and a bit of cinnamon. Then, I crushed some cardamom and cloves with a stone mortar and added them too. I chopped garlic, onions, and green chilies, and added them to the pot along with curry leaves and a pandan leaf. I added salt and a couple of dry Garcinia Cambogia cloves for a bit of sourness. I mixed everything together by hand. After that, I poured in thin coconut milk until it covered all the pieces. I covered the pot, put it on the stove, and turned it on.'
After the thin coconut milk had evaporated, I added the thick coconut milk and let it cook on low heat for a long time. When I saw the oil coming out of the pieces and smelled the great aroma, my mouth started watering. After tasting it, I removed the curry from the stove. Bimal called me right then, as if he could smell it. Normally, he doesn't come home from work easily, but today, when he heard that baby jackfruit curry was for lunch, he came running home! I was so happy to see him enjoying the curry.
With love, Sujani" ❤️
