Method
- Chop the jack fruit and puree it into a fine paste.
- In a pan take a tsp of ghee and pour in the jack fruit paste along with just a little water if the puree is too thick.
- Allow this to cook on medium flame for around ten minutes.
- In a vessel, boil the jaggery along with 1/4 cup of water till it melts.
- Once done filter it to remove impurities.
- Transfer the jaggery syrup to the cooked jack fruit pulp and let it all boil on medium flame for ten minutes.
- Now simmer the stove and add the coconut milk to it and whisk well to blend everything and switch off the flame.
- Do not let it boil after the coconut milk is added, it will start separating.
- Take the pradhaman off the fire and add the cardamom powder.
- Fry cashews in ghee until golden brown and also fry the coconut pieces separately and add them all to the pradhaman as well.
- Chakka pradhaman is ready to eat.
