4 Quick and Simple Recipes with Mung Bean Sprouts

__"Kathal ki Sabji"__ or Jackfruit curry is a delicious and popular dish from India, especially in the northern regions. This dish is made by cooking ripe jackfruit in a spicy and flavorful masala.

The popularity of Kathal ki Sabji has increased in recent years as people have become more health-conscious and are looking for new vegetarian options. Jackfruit is a nutritious and versatile ingredient that can be used in many different dishes. It has a unique taste and texture that makes it a perfect substitute for meat in vegan and vegetarian dishes.

## What is Kathal?
[Kathal](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jackfruit "Wikipedia link for Kathal or Jackfruit"), also known as Jackfruit, is a large tropical fruit that is native to South India. It is a member of the mulberry family and is one of the largest trees in the world.

Although it is classified as a fruit, the fleshy part of the unripe jackfruit is used as a vegetable in cooking. It has a slightly sweet and nutty flavor that is often compared to a combination of mango and pineapple.

The texture of Kathal is unique and can be described as a cross between a potato and a pineapple. When cooked, it has a tender and meaty texture that makes it a popular vegetarian alternative to meat.

## Is Kathal and Jackfruit the Same Thing?
Yes, the terms "Kathal" and "Jackfruit" are used interchangeably to refer to the same fruit. The difference is in the language - "Kathal" is the term used in India, especially in Hindi and Punjabi, while "Jackfruit" is the more commonly used term in English.

There is a common misconception that Jackfruit and [Durian](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Durian "Durian Wikipedia") are the same fruit, but they are not. Jackfruit has a sweet and fruity flavor while Durian has a strong and pungent flavor. Additionally, Jackfruit is often used as a vegetable while Durian is only used as a fruit.

## Benefits of Eating Kathal

Its high fiber content can keep you feeling full and satisfied, while its antioxidants can help to protect against cellular damage and chronic diseases. Additionally, the vitamins and minerals in Kathal can help to support overall health and wellness.

## The Best Way to Cook Jackfruit
1. Preparing Jackfruit involves cutting it into smaller pieces and removing the tough outer layer and seeds. This can be done using a sharp knife or a special tool designed for this purpose.
2. When cooking Jackfruit, it's important to keep a few tips in mind. For example, it's best to choose young and unripe Jackfruit for savory dishes like Kathal ki Sabji, as ripe Jackfruit has a sweeter flavor that may not be ideal for savory dishes. Additionally, cooking Jackfruit with spices and seasonings can help to enhance its flavor and improve the overall taste of the dish.
3. There are several ways to cook Jackfruit, but some of the best methods include sautéing, roasting, grilling, and slow-cooking. Each method can bring out different flavors and textures in the Jackfruit, so it's worth experimenting to find the one that works best for you. When making Kathal ki Sabji, a popular Punjabi-style dish, the Jackfruit is usually sautéed with spices and then simmered in a flavorful sauce until it is tender and infused with flavor.
