Step 1.
Fill a large pot with water and set over high heat to boil. Wash and peel the breadfruit using a vegetable peeler. Slice breadfruit into quarters and cut out the core that runs through the middle of the fruit. Cut into large chunks and place into boiling water. Boil for 30 mins until the breadfruit is tender.
Step 2.
While the breadfruit is cooking, finely chop the peppers, garlic, onion, and spinach.
Step 3.
Once the breadfruit has cooked (check if it’s tender with a fork), drain and leave to cool slightly. Place breadfruit into a large bowl and mash with a potato masher until smooth. Add the prepped veg, smoked paprika, curry powder and mix.
Step 4.
Beat the egg with the milk and add to the breadfruit mix bit by bit, combining well. With wet hands, scoop about a heaped tablespoon of the mixture into your hand, and form into balls. Roll the ball in breadcrumbs and set aside on a plate.
Step 5.
Fill a pan halfway with oil and set over medium heat. Once it's reached 160°C, carefully lower a few balls in to fry at a time. Fry for 3-5 minutes until golden brown, turning now and again.
Step 6.
Once crispy and golden, remove and drain on paper towels. Serve with our Scotch Bonnet Chilli Jam!
