pineapple curry recipe | pineapple gojju recipe | ananas menaskai recipe with step by step photo and video recipe. basically, menaskai or gojju is a karnataka cuisine delicacy which can be either prepared from sweet / raw mango, bitter gourd and with pineapple. it is typically eaten as side dish to rice or it can also be served for dosa and idlis. it is typically prepared in a thick consistency very similar to chutney or any festive sambar recipe.
this recipe is yet again shared by my friend shreepada’s mother and many many thanks to her for sharing amazing udupi or mangalore delicacy. basically, this pineapple curry is very popular across karnataka and is known as ananas or pineapple menaskai in udupi and mangalore region. it is also known as pineapple gojju in bangalore and mysore region. perhaps due to the thick consistency the word gojju may have been attached to this recipe. i personally like this recipe as side dish idli or kadubu rather than steamed rice but trust me it tastes great for both.
furthermore some important tips and recommendations for this amazing ananas menaskai recipe. firstly, make sure to select ripe and juicy pineapple or ananas for this recipe. my pineapple was moderately sweet and sour and hence i derived the below proportion of ingredients for pineapple curry. in addition, if you end up having sour pineapple, the jaggery quantity may have to be increased accordingly. further the tamarind quantity may have to be decreased due to the sourness of pineapple. lastly, the same recipe can be followed with sweet mangoes, raw mangoes and even with bitter gourd.
