Jack Fruit And Potato Curry
Jack fruit curry is one of my favorite and we especially make this curry in Holi a festival of colors. Jack Fruit or Kathal is Cooked with Potatoes in a spicy Gravy. This is a spicy dish and tastes great even with simple boiled rice. My mother makes delicious jack fruit curry and I have tried to learn from her.This is a really special dish for me as it brings back my childhood memories of holi celebrated at my home.
