Breadfruit Mezhukkuperatti (Kerala style)

 I am in love with this preparation as it tastes so much like boiled, seasoned tapioca and tapioca is my favourite!

Ingredients

3 cups cut breadfruit pieces after skinning and removing the inner core

1 cup water

1 tbsp oil

½ mustard seeds

½ tsp udad dal

A few curry leaves

½ tsp turmeric powder

Salt to taste

2 tbsps grated coconut

Instruction

-          Keep the cut breadfruit in water so that they don’t get darkened

-          Heat oil in a pan, add mustard seeds. When they splutter, add udad dal. When they brown slightly, add curry leaves and cut breadfruit pieces. Stir for a while.

-          Add the turmeric powder, salt, water, cover and cook. Keep stirring in between and add more water if needed. It will take about 8 to 10 minutes to be cooked.

Add grated coconut, mix well and remove from fire.
