Rhumbad / cluster figs which were available in the month of July- August are no longer available now ..But I can still enjoy them as fries because I had sun-dried them & can deep fry to use as a side dish now !!
Here are the fresh rhumbads that I got !
These were washed well and quartered . then added salt & kept for some time .when it had let out water …I crushed them a little in my hands so that the seeds are separated .
Then winnowed ( assudapp)this to remove the seeds .
Then sun-dried them so that they were well dried .you can fry them straight away too without sun drying !
Store them in tight containers .
As & when required – deep fry to enjoy as a side dish with rice or as a snack !
