500g smoked pork 2 kg jackfruit 6 garlic cloves 3 onions, sliced 4 small tomatoes, sliced 1 sprig of thyme 1/2 tsp curcuma Salt, pepper and oil
Method :
Peel and wash thoroughly the jackfruit. Cut the jackfruit into cubes. Soak the jackfruit pieces in a bowl of water, seasoned with salt and vinegar, for about 1 hour. Drain. Meanwhile, cut the smoked pork into small chunks. Bring to the boil to remove the salt and then drain. Using a pestle and mortar or a food processor, smash the garlic cloves, salt, pepper and chilies into a paste. Gently fry the smoked pork, onions and crushed condiments in oil. Add the saffron, thyme and the jackfruit pieces to the smoked pork mixture. Stir-fry the ingredients. Half-way through cooking, add the tomatoes and cover. The sauce should have reduced once everything is cooked. Serve on a bed of rice with the tomato and ginger sauce.
