Ingredients
1 tin green unripe jackfruit
Πportion vegan coleslaw
handful of fresh rocket leavesÂ
4-6 burger buns/bread rollsÂ
1 ripe avocadoÂ
For the barbecue sauce:
2 tsp smoked paprikaÂ
3 garlic cloves, crushedÂ
4 tbsp tamari/soya sauceÂ
2 tbsp tomato purée
2 tbsp cider vinegarÂ
2 tbsp oilÂ
4 tbsp waterÂ
2 tsp maple syrup/agave syrupÂ
Method
Preheat the oven to 200°C.
Shred the jackfruit into thin little strips pulling it apart (easiest to use your hands) ensuring to remove any of the seeds or tough ligament type bits as these can be a bit too chewy. Transfer to a colander and rinse under cold water, then spread out on a baking tray.
Put all the ingredients for the BBQ sauce into a bowl and mix well together using a fork. Then pour over the jackfruit, mixing very well to cover all the jackfruit (easiest to use your hands).
Spread the marinated jackfruit out well on the baking tray and bake in the preheated oven for 15 minutes or until it starts to release a delicious small, brown and crisp up slightly.
Into the burger bun/bread roll, add a healthy serving of the âpulled porkâ along with the coleslaw and sprigs of rocket. Add the slices of ripe avocado.Â
