Fried Jackfruit with Chocolate Sauce

My most classic dessert. Serve hot.

Ingredients

• 1 cup water
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon white sugar
• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
• 1 pinch salt
• oil for frying
• 6 pods jackfruit, seeded
• 2 cups milk
• 4 (1 ounce) squares chocolate
• 1 tablespoon white sugar

Steps

1. Mix water, flour, 1 teaspoon sugar, turmeric, and salt together in a bowl into a thick batter.
2. Heat oil in a large saucepan or fryer. Dip jackfruit into the batter and deep-fry until golden brown, 2 to 4 minutes.
3. Bring milk to a boil in a small pot; boil for 2 minutes. Add chocolate; stir until melted and smooth. Add 1 tablespoon sugar; stir until dissolved, about 1 minute. Simmer chocolate sauce over low heat, about 5 minutes.
4. Place fried jackfruit on a serving plate. Pour chocolate sauce on top.
