kathal ki sabji recipe | raw jackfruit curry | kathal sabji | jackfruit sabzi with step by step by step photo and video recipe. kathal or jackfruit is very much native to south-east asian countries. jackfruits are generally used to make sweets, breakfast, snacks recipes but can also be used to prepare curries too. it is particularly used as a meat alternative for its texture and gravy based kathal curry is one such popular gravy sabzi recipe.

as i was explaining earlier, young jackfruit slices can be used in myriad ways to prepare curries or sabji’s. particularly the type of curry changes to the location where it is made. this particular recipe is very much inspired by the north indian dhaba style cooking. having said that, in south india, especially in my hometown it is made as dry as a kheema. it is basically finely chopped and stir-fried with basic spices and herbs. more importantly, it is made without onion and garlic and served during festival and occasion lunch and dinner. whereas, this is a typical restaurant style curry with onion and garlic infused flavour. hence i would recommend you to try this recipe once and serve it to your friends and family.

furthermore, some more additional tips, suggestions and variants to the kathal ki sabji recipe. firstly, i would heavily recommend using a tender raw or young jackfruit for this recipe. ensure you get raw, as you may be tricked with ripe one which would end up releasing more sweetness to the curry. secondly, i have tried to marinate the tender jackfruit with spices and yoghurt mimicking the meat marination process. this would add more taste and flavour to the curry, but not mandatory and you can skip it. lastly, if you are not able to get the tender fresh raw jackfruit, you may try the canned jackfruit too. look for young jackfruit in your supermarket and it should taste the same.
