Magge Thanbura...a konkani delight

when I was growing up, specially during monsoon every meal included jackfruit seeds in some form or another.  Steamed or boiled seeds ; with gravy or without, you name it and we ate it. As a true GSB i too love  every part of jackfruit ,specially the seeds, we make so many curries and i really enjoy almost all the dishes.
 Indeed its a  nostalgic dish for me.  It’s one of the first dishes that my grand mom used to cook for me and it was also one of the first dish she taught me how to cook. Its a  simple dish with lots of fried garlic and chillies ,which makes this dish spicy and aromatic.
Ingredients:
