Fresh Jackfruit

One incredibly famous recipe Filipinos absolutely adore with ripe jackfruit is Ginataang Langka with Sago, a rich and creamy pudding-like dish loved for its contrasting textures and vibrant flavors. Here's the full recipe and method:
Ingredients:
1 ripe jackfruit, sliced into thick chunks
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup white sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1/8 teaspoon ground ginger Pinch of salt
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon tapioca pearls (optional)
Instructions:
1.In a medium saucepan, combine the coconut milk, water, brown sugar, white sugar, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, and salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
2.Add the jackfruit pieces and tapioca pearls (if using) to the simmering coconut milk mixture. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the jackfruit is tender and slightly translucent.
3.In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch with a tablespoon of water to form a slurry. Slowly drizzle the cornstarch slurry into the simmering mixture, stirring constantly until thickened to your desired consistency.
4. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Serve warm or chilled, topped with a sprinkle of coconut milk, toasted coconut flakes, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra decadent treat.
