Jackfruit Chips is one of the famous snack foods in South India, made by deep-frying the half-ripe flesh of the jackfruit. This is very tasty, crispy, and healthy snack food, which can be stored in air-tight containers for a long time. You need to select a jackfruit, which is fully matured but only half-ripe.
Ingredients
2 bowls of fresh raw jackfruit segments
2 tbsp salt
Oil for deep frying
Procedure
Cut the segments into thin fingers as shown in the pic.
Put salt in a small bowl and add 1/2 cup water and mix it
Heat oil in a Kadai and put the cut jackfruit fingers and fry on a medium flame, stirring constantly
Once it is 75% done, put 1 tsp saltwater in oil and stir it
Fry further for 2-3 mins, once it turns golden brown remove it from the flame
Spread the fried chips on tissue paper, once it comes to room temperature store them in an airtight container.
This is the traditional method of making banana chips and jackfruit chips.
If you don't want to add saltwater in hot oil, then you can fry it plain and then sprinkle salt after frying and removing it from the oil.
