Jackfruit Payasa |  ಹಲಸಿನ ಹಣ್ಣಿನ ಪಾಯಸ, A Traditional Dish From Karnataka, Specifically from Coastal Karnataka & Malnad Region

Jackfruit Payasa

Jackfruit is a family favourite. We never get bored of eating them. Since last year we are so lucky to be getting Whole Jackfruits at out local Costco during Spring & Summer. And, we make the most of it. 

Jackfruit Payasa

Ududpi & Malnad region are known for some amazing jackfruit dishes like Mulka (Jackfruit Fritters) , jackfruit kadubu/Idli, Jackfruit Dosa. 

I normally dislike the delicacies made out of jackfruit except for this Payasa. This recipe is loosely based on the one made by our trusted Adige Bhattaru back in Bangalore.  

How To Make Jackfruit Payasa

Serves 4 

You Will Need:

  • 20 pieces of Jackfruit 
  • 2 teaspoon Chiroti Rava 
  • 1/2 cup Jaggery 
  • 1 Heaped Cup Grated Coconut 
  • 1/2 teaspoon Cardamom 
  • A few Almonds  Chopped 
  • A few Cashwenuts 
  • 2 teaspoon Ghee 
How To:

Deseed the Jackfruit pieces. In a mixie jar, grind 15 pieces of Jackfruit into a smooth paste adding very little water 

Finely Chop the rest of the Jackfruit Pieces 

Dry Roast 2 teaspoon Fine Tawa/Chiroti Rava 

Add 1.3 cup of Water Into a pan & Melt the Jaggery.

While the Jaggery is melting, Extract Coconut Milk from Grated Coconut. You should be able to get approximately 3.5 cups of Coconut Milk

I mix Thick & Thin Milk together 

Once the Jaggery is Melted, Add Jackfruit Puree & chopped Jackfruit Pieces & Rava Cook for 2-3 minutes 

Now add Coconut Milk & Cardamom powder. Gently heat till the Payasa is hot. Do not Boil too much 

Turn off the heat& set aside

Heat Ghee in a pan & roast Almonds & cashews until golden & mix into Payasa

Serve Warm or Chilled 

NOTE:

Do Not use a lot of Rava/Semolina, It will make the Payasa very thick 

Do Not Boil the Payasa after Coconut Milk is added
