This time I use canned green jackfruit/unripe to make a vegan curry with tofu cooked in coconut milk with curry seasoning to serves with steamed white rice. Canned jackfruit can be found in Asian / Oriental market in vegetable isle I made similar dish before  jackfruit sweet stew with chicken/gudeg  this time I made vegan version with tofu, And I also made  jackfruit muffins  use ripe jackfruit for taste.
