Here is what we need:
Bamboo shoots finely chopped – 1 large bowl
Crushed jackfruit seeds -20
Fresh coconut scraped – ½ cup
Red chillies(fried in 1tsp oil) -5
2 lemon sized jaggery
Urad dal(fried in lil oil) -1tsp
Coriander seeds(fried in oil) -1tsp
Salt to taste
For seasoning:
1tsp oil
Mustard seeds-1tsp
Curry leaves – few

Method:
The one we get in markets in Mangalore look black from outside. Usually the outer layers are removed and then cut we get the fine part chopped which is called keerla Neeli.
To clean the bamboo shoots, add water until it is slightly above the shoots. The next day throw the water and add fresh water. It can be used on 3rd day after discarding the water and giving it a rinse. This is supposed to remove the bitterness of bamboo shoots 
In a pressure cooker add bamboo shoots/ keerla Neeli and bikkand/jackfruit seeds with little water and pressure cook for 4 whistles .
Then add jaggery and salt and boil till jaggery melts.
Grind coconut, red chillies, tamarind, fried urad dal and coriander seeds coarsely.
Then add this gravy to the bamboo shoots and boil for 5 minutes.
Heat oil add mustard seeds, when they splatter add curry leaves and season this on the sukke.
