JACK FRUIT SEED / BIKKAND SONG

Yesterday I got a big ripe jackfruit from a friend's place. I think this will be the last jack fruit of this season. Here I am the only person who eats jackfruit as well as its seeds. I always keep a few seeds and put remaining seeds in my kitchen dustbin. This time I thought not to waste and use each seed in a best way and my family make eat Bikkand.
