Instructions
Step 1
To begin making the Raw Jackfruit and Peanut Masala Poriyal , let us first cut the raw jackfruit
Step 2
In order to do that we have to first grease our hands and the knife that is going to be used with oil

This important tip ensures that the hands don't get sticky from the natural fruit latex/sap present in the fruit, does not get onto your hands and makes the cutting process hassle-free
Step 4
Keep a bowl of water mixed with some salt, ready to put the cut raw jackfruit pieces to avoid discolouration of the fruit

Step 10
In a heavy bottomed pan, heat oil on medium heat, add the mustard seeds and curry leaves
Step 11
Allow the mustard seeds to crackle
Step 12
Add the peanuts and pan fry till the peanuts are well roasted
Step 13
Do this over medium heat, so the peanuts get roasted well from the inside
Step 14
