- 1 red bell pepper sliced thinly
- 1 large red onion sliced thinly
- _
- 2 x 500g | 18oz tins of young green jackfruit in water or brine
- 1 x 400g | 14oz tin of pineapple rings in juice
- 8-10 tbsp smoky BBQ sauce make sure it is vegan
- 2 tbsp maple syrup

- 1 tsp garlic granules
- 1 tsp hot chile powder
- 1 red chilli sliced, to serve
- fresh coriander roughly chopped, to serve
- small tortilla wraps to serve
Instructions
- If your jackfruit is preserved in brine then rinse it in cold water and dry before using. Cut away the hard, woody centres. Place the rest in a bowl.
- Add the BBQ sauce, maple syrup, lemon juice, chipotle paste and spices and mix together.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the onions and pepper over medium heat for 5 minutes.
- Add the jackfruit and marinade and cook over medium heat, stirring to coat.
- Continue cooking for 10 minutes and add the pineapple juice once the pan gets a little dry. Continue to cook until the jackfruit softens and use two forks to shred it.
- Heat a griddle pan as hot as it will go and brush with a little oil. Place the pineapple rings on the hot griddle and leave undisturbed for a couple of minutes. Check the underside lifting an edge with tongs and flip once griddle lines appear. Cook on the other side for a further 3-4 minutes, until caramelised.
- Stir some fresh coriander into the jackfruit and serve over small tortillas topped with the grilled pineapple and fresh chilli.
