Jackfruit Idli (Halasina Hannini Kadubu)

I had some left over jackfruit and was looking for a sweet dish from them. I got this recipe from http://www.smithakalluraya.com/2016/06/jackfruit-idli-halasina-hannina-kadubu.html. I tried it and it came out well. I believe the dish is famous in Coastal Karnataka.

Makes about 8-10 idlis

Ingredients
  • 1 cup raw rice rava (See note)
  •  2 – 2 1/2 cups ripe jackfruit, deseeded and chopped coarsely
  • 1 cup grated coconut
  • 1/2 cup jaggery, add more or less as per your taste
  • 2 – 3 cardamom
  • Salt, a pinch
  • Oil to grease mould



Preparation
  • In a mixer, grind jackfruit and jaggery with little or no water to a coarse paste.
  • Add grated coconut and cardamom and grind everything to a fine paste and add it in a mixing bowl.
  • Add rice rava and salt a little water. Mix well and allow to stand for about 20 minutes. The consistency should be a little thicker than idli batter. 
  • Grease idli moulds with oil and pour the mixture into them.
  • Steam for about 15 minutes. It is done when a toothpick or a skewer comes out clean when inserted into the idlis.
  • Serve hot.
Note
To make rice rava, soak raw rice in water for an hour, drain it on a cloth for an hour or two and dry grind it to a coarse semolina (rava) consistency.
