Banbukeyo Bon'gara

Banbukeyo Bon'gara (Breadfruit Stew !!)..This is the name of todays dish, i am not sure its the real name, at least thats what my mom says it is and mom knows best :D. There are a lot of traditional dishes made from breadfruit. This Bon'gara creates a thick consistency from the breadfruit which gives a delicious taste. The version created is not spicy , but can adjust the spicy according to your preference. People enjoy this with some spiciness and it goes well with hardened buns (Faaroshi). Just break faaroshi and put some stew on top..and then you are floating hehe,..My tummy is bulging after eating two bowls of this ..Lets try it @@


Ingredients

1/2 a breadfruit (cut into 1 inch pieces and boiled)
small bowl of fish (cut into 1 inch pieces, it can be raw or dried fish)
1 onion
1 tbsp Chilli Powder (lonumirus havaadhu)
2 Garlic
1 inch ginger
Curry leaves
Thick coconut cream (normally its first taken from the scraped coconut squeeze)
Thin coconut cream (about 2 cups, and this is the watery squeeze)

How to Make

Mix the ingredients for the chilli paste, garlic, ginger, curry leaves, half an onion, chilli powder.

Saute some onions in oil, add some curry leaves, add the chilli paste and fish, cook for few mins

Mix in the thin coconut cream and finally add the breadfruit and salt to taste.

Once it is boiling add thick coconut cream. now the mixture should be thick from the breadfruit.

Serve with bread, roti or faaroshi and forget about dieting!!! :D :D
