If you can find a jackfruit that's not too ripe -- as its flesh becomes too gooey -- do try Taruna Deepak's Kathal Ki Sabzi.  

Its rich taste and fibrous texture make it an excellent choice for a vegetable dish that goes well with rotis, naans or steamed rice. The whole spices and raw jackfruit lend a wonderful flavour to this spicy preparation that has a little gravy.

Taruna, who dabbles with all sorts of vegetarian cuisines, feels the sabzi pairs well with Bihari pua, a mildly sweet, deep-fried pancake.

Kathal Sabzi

Serves: 3-4

Ingredients

Method

Taruna's Note: The onions need to be fried over high heat. Frying them over low heat will sweeten them and this will sweeten the curry.

For a thicker curry, I sometimes grate the onions instead of thinly slicing them.

Editor's Note: To make Pua use this recipe (external link).
