Recently we got a big jackfruit from Sendhil’s Periappa’s house from Manakkarai, Kumbakonam. We enjoyed the fruit and reserved the jackfruit seed ( Palakottai in Tamil) for making sambar or puli kuzhambu with it as it has so many health benefits and good nutritional value. But one of my friends suggested me to try jackfruit seed curry/ Palakottai poriyal for rice. So I asked my MIL for the poriyal recipe and tried it yesterday for our lunch. It came out very tasty. Sendhil loved it a lot. As I cooked this curry in pressure cooker, my job was done quickly.Its ingredients and method of preparation are very similar to Kerala style Jackfruit seed thoran recipe. It was tasting good with sambar rice.I am happy that I tried a new Jackfruit seed recipe. Jackfruit season has started in India. So if you buy jackfruit, do not discard the seeds.Try this Palakottai poriyal and enjoy its health benefits. Lets see how to make jackfruit seeds curry recipe.
