"E(n)chore paka" is one of the most common Bengali idioms that senior people often use to define younger generation. Obviously in a very sarcastic way! It means "ripened/matured before age". "E(n)chor"/ "Ichor" is what we call raw jack fruits in Bengali. And ripened ones are known as "Ka(n)thal"..which is eaten as fruit.
Green jack fruit is a very popular early-summer vegetable in Bengali kitchen. This is also known as "gaach pa(n)tha" (vegetarian meat). It is cooked in different ways in other parts of India. Even this tropical fruit/vegetable is very popular in other South Asian countries like Malaysia, Philippines etc. This is one of my most favourite vegetables.
Ma used to make "E(n)chorer dalna, kalia" etc...and of course "E(n)chor chingri" (Raw jack fruit curry with shrimp). This is my favourite. Sharing my family recipe here. Ingredients for "E(n)chor Chingri": How to prepare "E(n)chor Chingri":
