Chakkapazham (Jackfruit Ripened) Varattiyath

Clean the Chakkappazham (Jackfruit ripened), remove the seeds also and cut them into small pieces as shown in the picture

Cook the chakkapazham pieces in a pressure cooker for about 10 minutes and allow to cool it

Grind the cooked jackfruit in a mixer grinder

Heat the Cheenachatty/cooking vessel and change the grinded jackfruit into the cheenachatty and mix it well

Add Jaggery into this mix and stir it further

When the colour of the mix turns into brown, add Ghee and stir it well continuously.

When the mix becomes thick (like fruit jam), put off the stove and continue to stir it for some more time (if necessary add some more ghee).

Chakkappazham (Jackfruit, ripened) varattiyath is ready. This can be used for making Chakka Ada, Chakka Paayasam etc. or even can eat directly like eating chocolates.
