Ingredients for Chakka Pradhaman
- Jackfruit / Chakka - 4 cups chopped
- Chana Dal / Kadalai Paruppu - ¾ cup

- Water - 3 cups + more as needed
- Cardamom Powder / Yelakai Podi - 1 tsp

This payasam is so easy to make, many people make chakka varatti first and then use that to make this.. But i just made this using jack fruits. The key for getting the perfect taste is to cook the jack fruit with jaggery for quite a long time, till it gets jam like. This gives you the perfect taste.
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..

Hi Aarthi,
