JACKFRUIT IDLI RECIPE | JACKFRUIT KADUBU | HALASINA HANNINA KADUBU

Today i have for you all a very famous dish from Coastal Karnataka .. ” Jackfruit Idli ” . They are locally known as ” Halasina Hannina Idli / Kadubu / Gatti ” . No points for guessing who the hero of the dish is … of course the seasonal fruit Ripe JackFruit. Soft and flavourful with distinct aroma of jackfruit these idlis taste just divine . Traditionally over riped jackfruit ( tuluve hannu ) is used to make these idlis and are steamed in banana leaves / teak leaves which adds an amazing aroma & taste. They are best had steaming hot with ghee on top and / or honey on side . Since i don’t like ghee nor have sweet tooth , i relish these jackruit idlis plain or with mango pickle . Tastes so yum !!!

If you happen to visit my native in this season , each house will surely offer you something made from Jack fruit . With almost every house ,having a jackfruit tree in its backyard , this fruit’s part and parcel of their life.

Few points to note while making Jackfruit Idli :

  1. If you don’t have rice rava, you can make it at home like this: Soak raw rice for 1 hour. Drain water completely. Spread it on a cloth or paper towel for about 10 mins,so that the grains become dry. Grind the rice in a mixer to a coarse consistency.Home made rice rava is ready..
  2. Instead of rice rava you can do this with normal upma rava too. Procedure is same . just roast rava lightly and add.
  3. The batter of idli should not be watery. Else it will be mushy and soggy .
  4. Don’t cut on the fruit quantity or coconut quantity . Else idlis will turn hard . In case you don’t have sufficient fruit , increase coconut quantity .
  5. If you still want to cut the coconut quantity and don’ t have adequate fruit.. you can add a pinch of baking soda to the batter . Your idlis will turn soft .
  6. When idlis are done, remove the lid and set aside for 5 minutes so that you can de mould the idlis easily without breaking it.
