JACKFRUIT TACOS



Jackfruit Tacos image

This jackfruit tacos recipe is my vegan spin on traditional pork carnitas tacos. The spicy cumin chipotle sauce is delicious and coats the shredded jackfruit so well that even meat eaters won't notice the difference! -Lila Cornelio, Morton Grove, Illinois

JACKFRUIT TACOS



Jackfruit Tacos image

Jackfruit is a fantastic and crowd-pleasing ingredient with a fibrous texture and flesh that soaks up flavor brilliantly, but it can be hard to find. Try your local Asian supermarket and be sure to choose green jackfruit in water. These tacos are perfect finger food, combining tasty jackfruit with a Mexican combo of zingy salsa and creamy guacamole.

Provided by Henry Firth

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 can (14 oz) young green jackfruit in water
1 white onion
4 garlic cloves
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tbsp maple syrup
7 tbsp vegetable stock
1/2 tsp Tabasco sauce
4 limes
1 1/2 tsp ground cumin
1 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
1/2-1 tsp chili powder
1/2 tsp salt
Handful fresh cilantro
12 crunchy taco shells
1 cup guacamole
1 cup salsa
Deep frying pan with a lid over medium heat

Steps:

  • Tip the jackfruit into a sieve or colander to drain the excess water and pat the pieces down with a clean kitchen towel to dry them off | Cut into 1/4-inch strips and put to one side
  • Peel and slice the onion and garlic very thinly | Warm the vegetable oil in the frying pan | Add the onion and garlic to the pan and stir with a wooden spoon until soft and translucent | Add the jackfruit, maple syrup, vegetable stock, and Tabasco sauce | Cut 1 of the limes in half and squeeze in the juice of one half, catching any seeds in your other hand | Stir until the jackfruit is well covered
  • Put the lid on the pan, turn down the heat, and let it simmer for 7-10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has been absorbed into the jackfruit | Take the lid off the pan and sprinkle in all the spices and the salt | Stir until the jackfruit pieces are well covered and taking on the color of the spices | Transfer the jackfruit pieces to a serving dish
  • Slice the remaining limes into wedges and remove the leaves from the cilantro by running your thumb and forefinger from the top to the base of the stems (the leaves should easily come away), saving the stems for another recipe | Serve the taco shells, jackfruit, guacamole, salsa, lime wedges, and cilantro leaves on individual plates and let everyone build their own tacos

  • Thoroughly rinse and drain jackfruit. Then begin sorting. The pieces come in chunks or triangle shapes. Cut off the center "core" portion of the jackfruit that's tougher in texture and separate it from the rest of the fruit. Then chop into smaller pieces. For the remaining portion of the jackfruit that appears more stringy, use your hands to pull into small shredded pieces. You're basically trying to get the jackfruit into small, shredded/chopped pieces. Rinse the jackfruit once more in a colander, drain, and thoroughly dry.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add oil of choice, onion, and garlic. Sauté for 4-5 minutes or until onions are golden brown and softened.
  • Add jackfruit, salt, paprika, cumin, chili powder, coconut sugar (starting with 2 Tbsp // or less if making a smaller batch), chipotle peppers and their adobo sauce (starting with 1 pepper and working your way up), coconut aminos, water, and lime juice. Stir to coat and reduce heat to low - medium. Cover and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • For finer texture, as your jackfruit is cooking, use your spoon to mash the jackfruit into smaller pieces, or use two forks to shred the jackfruit as it cooks down. This will create a more realistic “meat-like” texture.
