Jack fruit

Whilst we may have considerable reservations about the amount of plastic involved, Mindful Chef are undoubtedly serving the intended purpose of introducing us to new flavours and foods.  Today, we had a Sri Lankan curry with Jack fruit.  We had deliberately chosen the Jack fruit meal as neither of us had previously tried it.  It was served with black rice, which has featured in several of the Mindful Chef recipes.  They seem to quite like using it - and certainly it is flavoursome.  It cannot be bought in our local supermarket - if we want more, we'll have to find it online.

Our considered opinion on the meal was that the spiciness was too great for what seemed to be a quite delicate flavour of the Jack fruit.
