  • Remove the skin of Kadachakka (Bread-fruit) and cut into small pieces and wash it well.
  • Wash the toor dal and cook it in a pressure-cooker.
  • Put the tamarind in some hot / cold water to make the tamarind pulp.
  • Fry the ingredients (scraped coconut, black-gram, fenu greek, red chilli, asafoetida and coriander) along with one tea-spoon oil for 10 minutes on low flame.
  • Allow the mix to cool for 10-15 minutes and then grind it well and keep this paste separately.
  • Place the pressure-cooker with the cooked dal (or can replace the pressure cooker with another vessel convenient to cook) on the stove and put the pieces of kadachakka in the cooker .
  • Add the masala mix in it along with tamarind pulp and salt and allow this mix to boil for further 10 - 15 minutes or more and when it is cooked well, put off the stove and remove the cooker from the stove.
  • Heat the frying pan, put two teaspoons of oil in the pan and add mustard seeds, curry leaves, red chilli and if required some black-gram also.
