Halasina Beejada Huli/JackFruit Seeds Sambar

"I like this " has grown endlessly in the past few years. Thanks to all food blogs they have helped me to love food more and more. Halasina Beejada Huli/JackFruit Seeds Sambar is my childhood favorite. We sisters fought over the dining table just for the seeds in the sambar. Fed up by our fights, mom told us how many seeds she has cooked and our share of seeds! Even then we were like "can't we have more"? oops! 3 naughty girls were difficult to manage :D. Summer holidays, mangoes, jackfruit and fights had become synonymous at home.Here is how I make that tasty sambar for which we fought over each other.

You need the following :

Jackfruit Seeds : as much as you like. (deskin and cut into halves or whole)
Carrot : 1 big (peeled and chopped)
Potato: 1 big (peeled and chopped)
Onion: 1 big (peeled and chopped)
Tomato: 1 big (chopped)
Turmeric : 1 big pinch
Split pigeon peas : 1/2 cup (1 cup=100ml water)
Pressure cook all the above ingredients for 3 whistles. Pigeon peas must be soft, and rest of the vegetables must be cooked.

To grind :
Dry grated coconut/Wet coconut : 1/4 cup
Onion : 1 small piece
Sambar Powder : 1 tbsp
Grind the above to smooth paste.
Alternatively :
You can fry the following ingredients and grind with coconut & onion
Coriander Seeds : 1 tbsp
Cumin : 1/2 tsp
Red chillies : 4
Fenugreek seeds : 5
Chanadal : 1 tsp
Uraddal: 1tsp

Other ingredients :
Tamarind extract : 2 tbsp
Salt and Jaggery

In a pan pour the ground masala, tamarind extract, salt and jaggery till the raw smell dissapears. Add cooked peas and vegetables. Bring to boil and continue to boil on low flame for about 4-5 mins. Before you switch off the stove add few stalks of coriander leaves. Close the vessel and switch off the stove. Leave it aside for 10 minutes before you serve it with hot white rice.

Jackfruit seeds:) that's like a staple in Mangalore during the jackfruit season. But they are delicious, roasted, cooked, and in curries! Never tasted them in a sambar, but had them in curry with meat accompaniments:)

Thanks Lakshmi, for bringing some good old memories back!:)
