MD Polos in Brine for Mallum is a convenient Sri Lankan grocery product made from tender young jackfruit preserved in brine and prepared specifically for making traditional mallum-style dishes at home. Known in Sri Lanka as “polos,” young jackfruit has a firm yet tender texture and a mild flavor that absorbs spices, coconut, herbs, and seasonings exceptionally well.
Available from Al Modina Halal Food in Japan, MD Polos in Brine is an excellent pantry ingredient for Sri Lankan families, South Asian home cooks, and anyone interested in preparing authentic jackfruit dishes without the difficult work of cutting and cleaning a whole fresh jackfruit.
For customers searching for Sri Lankan groceries or halal food in Japan, this product provides a practical way to recreate traditional flavors using a convenient ready-prepared ingredient.
“Polos” is the Sri Lankan name commonly used for tender or young jackfruit.
Unlike ripe jackfruit, which becomes sweet and fruity, young jackfruit has a much milder taste and firmer texture. Because of this, it is widely used in savory Sri Lankan cooking.
This MD product contains young jackfruit pieces preserved in brine. The jackfruit is prepared so that home cooks can use it as an ingredient for mallum and other savory dishes without having to process fresh jackfruit from scratch.
The front label specifically identifies the product as “Polos in Brine for Mallum.”
Mallum, also spelled mallung or mellum, is a traditional Sri Lankan preparation in which vegetables, leafy ingredients, jackfruit, or other foods are combined with ingredients such as coconut, spices, chili, onion, and seasonings.
Recipes differ between families and regions, so the exact preparation of Polos Mallum can vary.
Young jackfruit works particularly well in this style of cooking because its texture holds up during preparation while absorbing the flavors added to the dish.
MD Polos in Brine gives you the main ingredient in a convenient form so you can season and prepare it according to your preferred Sri Lankan recipe.
Preparing a fresh jackfruit can be time-consuming.
A whole young jackfruit must normally be cut, peeled, cleaned, and portioned before it can be cooked. The natural latex in fresh jackfruit can also make preparation difficult.
Using Polos in Brine eliminates much of this work.
Simply prepare the jackfruit according to the instructions on the product label and use it in your chosen recipe.
Because the product is stored in brine, you may need to drain or rinse it depending on the recipe and manufacturer's directions.
Always follow the instructions on the jar for the best result.
MD Polos in Brine can be used as the base for a variety of Sri Lankan-style dishes.
It is especially suitable for:
Polos Mallum
Jackfruit curry
Spiced young jackfruit
Coconut-based jackfruit dishes
Sri Lankan rice and curry meals
Vegetable side dishes
Homemade South Asian jackfruit recipes
Its mild flavor allows it to work with aromatic spices, coconut, curry leaves, chili, onions, and other traditional Sri Lankan ingredients.
Once prepared, Polos Mallum can be enjoyed as part of a traditional Sri Lankan rice-and-curry meal.
It pairs particularly well with:
Steamed rice
Sri Lankan red rice
Dhal curry
Coconut sambol
Fish curry
Chicken curry
Beef curry
Mutton curry
Vegetable curries
Pickles and chutneys
For a simple meal, serve prepared Polos Mallum with rice and dhal.

Traditional ingredients can sometimes be difficult to find when living outside Sri Lanka.
MD Polos in Brine for Mallum helps customers in Japan continue preparing familiar foods without depending on seasonal access to fresh young jackfruit.
It is particularly useful for busy households because most of the difficult ingredient preparation has already been completed.
The jar format also makes it convenient to keep as part of your South Asian pantry until you are ready to prepare your next meal.
Young jackfruit is a plant-based ingredient that has become increasingly popular around the world because of its substantial texture.
In Sri Lankan cuisine, however, jackfruit is not a new meat substitute trend. It has been used traditionally for generations in curries and other savory dishes.
Its ability to absorb seasonings makes it particularly useful in recipes containing spices, coconut, and aromatic ingredients.
MD Polos in Brine allows customers in Japan to experience this traditional use of young jackfruit conveniently at home.
