The harvest season is almost here. All sorts of fruit are about to ripen. There are mangoes. There is also breadfruit. Which is something that you don't easily get in Mumbai. The market in Matunga (central) is one of the few places in the city where you can find one. But in Mangalore, it's one of the necessary items for a meal. It's a green type of vegetable. "It looks like a tender coconut," says Prabha Kini, a home chef who will exploit the flavours of the season for a Gaud Saraswat Brahmin (GSB) meal this week.
