Raw Jackfruit Sukka Recipe | Kadgi Chakko Recipe

This dish is flavorful. I have used fresh Coriander seed, urad dal, and dry chilis. Dry roasting whole spices is a process where they release flavors and aromas. When you blend them and make a freshly grounded powder, that makes your dish even more flavorful.

The freshly blended spices lift this dish a level up. It is a must in this dish. You may not get the flavor if you using store-bought powder. Spices quickly lose much of their original taste once it is ground.

You won’t be satisfied with one serving, definitely, you will ask more 🙂

Cleaning a Jackfruit for Raw Jackfruit Sukka Recipe

I have learned this from my Mom. She uses Mustard oil to start this process. To make this dish, you should use Coconut Oil instead of Mustard Oil. Rub your hand with a dash of coconut oil before you start cutting the Jackfruit.

Cut the jackfruit and apply coconut oil on the sticky part. You need to remove the outer green skin and discard it. You need to discard the center ridge too.

It is better to place the Jackfruit on top of a Newspaper. In the cleaning process, there may be sticky jackfruit Sap drips. It is also advisable to rub a little oil on the knife. It will be easy to clean that later.

Add chopped raw jackfruit pieces into a bowl of water. This process helps to wash off the excess gum. Also, it will not change its color.
