Steps

1

Soak the tamarind in water for 10-15 mins, extract the juice and keep it aside. Clean the chakka kuru by scrapping the outer covering of the seeds. Wash the chakka kuru and toor dal separately.
2

In a pressure cooker, cook the jackfruit seeds and toor dal for 4-5 whistles or until done. Remove from flame and keep it aside. Once the pressure has subsided, remove the lid.
3

Heat oil in a pan. Splutter mustard seeds, dry red chilies, and curry leaves. Add the turmeric powder and sambar powder and fry for 1 min. Add the cooked jackfruit seeds & toor dal mixture and mix well. Add 1 cup of water and bring it to a boil. Add the tamarind extract and mix well. Allow it to simmer for a few minutes. Remove from flame and garnish with more fresh curry leaves. Serve hot chakka kuru sambar with steamed rice or dosa.
