Rajma Koddel with jackfruit

Hello dear readers ! I’m back after a long break. Today I’m going to share a very simple g.s.b recipe. It is called as ‘Rajma Koddel’ . Usually ‘Koddel’ is seasoned with Garlic. When raw jackfruit is in season we add it in the curry which compliments very well. I have already shared the recipe of “Jain Avare Koddel” in the space. I like to season the curry with lots of smashed garlic. Stay tuned for more interesting recipes!
