Tender jak kebab ! Meaty vegan dish …I have
posted tender jak cutlets, and tender jak kebab and here’s the link to it
https://calinskitchen.com/2017/03/11/tender-jackfruit-kebab/
Today is another version of tender jak kebab
In fact it was a reconstructed from the fried
jak fruit I made seeni sambol with. (Recipe to
be posted).
This is more of a falafel as I have, used the
ingredients to make falafel . Any dish,east ,west
south,or north can be fusioned to one’s own
taste. I don’t believe in dictating authenticity in
any dish.Yes… if authentic dishes are needed in
a competion I agree you have to prove your
skills . Present lifestyle scenario in fusioned
food is not always a delight or healthy. When it
comes to reconstructing a dish, I believe it
should be more of a healthy view.
