Jack Of All Fruits: Make 5 Decadent Desserts With Kathal
By Jasmine Kaur
The rich and meaty flavours of jackfruit are not only great for savouries but a delightful sweet meat ingredient too. Halwa, ladoos, payasam and many more recipes with kathal.
Jackfruit Sabudana Dessert
A layered dessert made with jackfruit and sabudana, this sweet meat is all things creamy and yummy. Add coconut and almond milk and enjoy the mix.
Jackfruit Halwa
Halwa is a commonly-eaten dessert in many Indian households. This one’s not made with atta or sooji but jackfruit. Dunk it in and sweeten with jaggery.
Jackfruit Ladoos
The ladoos are made with the crunchy and nutritious seeds of jackfruit, which is paired with jaggery, cardamom powder and grated coconut. Roll and let them set before eating.
Jackfruit Payasam
South Indian version of kheer, payasam is a milky pudding, made with rice or vermicelli. Here, jackfruit is combined with jaggery and it is topped with chopped cashews.
Jackfruit Modak
The small, dumpling-shaped bites are usually made during Ganesh Chaturthi. This recipe flavours the modak with jackfruit and lends a chunky touch to it.
