Fried Jackfruit is my new favorite food in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia.
Welcome to the Fried Jackfruit Stand in the parking lot of Malewati Mall, Kuala Lumpur Malaysia.
This stand is right across from the vegetarian Popia Zaiton truck I reviewed yesterday. I was thinking this might be chicken to add to my meal, but I was very happy to be wrong.
Jackfruit is ready to be cut and cooked in the contraption you see on the left.
This friendly couple is responsible for the magic, in the distance you can see the stand-still mall traffic, a fresh fruit stand, and way at the back is the grey mall building.
You can only see three of the seven fried jackfruit by the time I got them home. Seven was not enough! I had to force myself to put these three away or I would have gobbled them all up in the car and have no photos.
Notice the fried jackfruit are not greasy at all. The outer breading was very crispy and lighter than it looks.
When raw, the seed of the jackfruit is very hard and not edible. In the past when I have had some, I have dry roasted them and they become soft and savory like a nut.
This preparation takes the seed to a whole other level. It was softened by the cooking process and had a melt in your mouth texture with nutty flavor. So good!
Here I am very close up. The seed is blurred, but you can see how the jackfriut has turned to jam! This is the most delectable food I have eaten so far in Malaysia, and that is saying a lot!
I recommend trying fried Jackfruit if you ever see it. I do not know if it will be as delicious as these were, so come to the Malewati Mall parking lot if you can. The cost was 7 for RM 5, which is $1.25 usd.
I advise getting two orders!
