Ingredients
- 1 can jackfruit
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1 tsp garam masala
- 1 tsp dried coriander
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 1 tbsp Sriracha
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp coconut sugar
- ¾ cup BBQ sauce
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion diced
- 2 cloves garlic minced
- 2 cups Shiitake mushrooms roughly chopped
- ¾ cup water
- 1 tbsp tomato paste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C/350 F and line a large baking tray with parchment paper.
- Drain and rinse the jackfruit, then transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Use your hands or a fork to separate the jackfruit fibres.
- Add the cumin, garam masala, dried coriander, apple cider vinegar, sriracha, soy sauce, coconut sugar, and around a third of the BBQ sauce. Stir together well, then transfer the jackfruit to the baking tray. Spread it out into a single layer, and bake for 20 minutes, until crispy.
- Meanwhile, heat the olive oil in a large skillet or frying pan. Add the onions, garlic and shiitake mushrooms. Cook over a medium-high heat for 5 minutes, or until fully softened.
- Transfer the jackfruit to the skillet/frying pan together with water, the rest of the BBQ sauce and tomato paste. Stir together well for a couple of minutes, seasoning to taste with salt and pepper. Serve immediately, and enjoy!
