    Green jackfruit or kathal is a tropical fruit which is a great alternative to meat.It grows in abundance in South India and is now available across the world. Yellow ripe jackfruit is used in kheer or puddings or eaten as is.On the other hand, green and young jackfruit is used to make jackfruit curry, jackfruit biryani and pickle as it is savory. Another great recipe is vegan jackfruit sliders.If you cannot find it in your local market you can always make the original as canned jackfruit recipes.

    Vegan jackfruit sliders or jackfruit sloppy joes is an easy recipe for working parents. This is one of the easiest of green jackfruit in brine recipes. Here, instead of making a patty, curry is smeared over buns and eaten with creamy coleslaw or salad in it.

    Jackfruit recipes

    It grows in abundance and is quite filling. I remember it growing at our friend Dinoo didi's garden and she would always bring it for us. Another favorite memory is all the jackfruit chips in Kerala chips center and local vendors cutting it and selling in markets in Mumbai. It would save time for all the fast paced Mumbai life. Some memories always stay with you.

    Jackfruit is not easily available at my local market in Melbourne. Hence, I love using canned jackfruit for these recipes when I do not find the fresh one
