Raw Jackfruit
Raw Jackfruit, known as “Kathal” in India, is a fruit derived from the jackfruit tree. It is often used as a meat substitute because of its meaty texture and neutral taste.
Cultivation
This variety of jackfruit grows in tropical areas of India and other parts of Southeast Asia. The fruit is harvested before it is ripe, when the texture is firm and the starch content is higher.
Nutritional values
Raw Jackfruit is rich in fiber, vitamins (such as vitamin C and B complex), and minerals such as potassium and magnesium. It also contains a reasonable amount of protein.
Use
Raw Jackfruit is often used to make flavorful curries and stews. It absorbs different flavors and spices well. It is also used as filling for samosas and rolls.
