A friend gave me 4 breadfruits a couple days ago. Some are still hard, others are on their way to getting ripe. I’m not able to use them all right now. Question:can breadfruit be cut up and frozen before it is cooked? Thanks for your time.

To answer Madhuli’s question, it is known as “kaccha phanas” in Marathi and is available in Maharashtra.

I tried the tinned variety (from Thailand) which is available in all Chinese\Asian stores, I tried this recipe the other day, except that I tempered it with garlic and curry leaves and it turned out very yummy..hubby just kept licking his fingers..

Lakshmi, Thanks for your kind words.

Thanks Monisha.

Lakshmik, breadfruit and jackfruit are different. Please click here. The first picture in the link is breadfruit. You might get the frozen, cut breadfruit in Indian store.

Madhuli, breadfruit is very popular in South kanara, North kanara of Karnataka and also in Kerala. I am not sure if this vegetable is available in Maharastra. But once you eat this, you will never ever forget it .
