  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 2 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp ground coriander
  • 1/2 tsp chili powder (adjust for spiciness)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1/2 cup vegetable broth
  • 2 tbsp tomato paste
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar

Мethod of preparation

Begin by heating the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until soft and fragrant. Stir in the shredded jackfruit along with cumin, smoked paprika, coriander, and chili powder. Cook until the jackfruit is well coated in the spices. Pour in the vegetable broth, tomato paste, apple cider vinegar, and maple syrup. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, until the jackfruit is tender and the flavors are well-blended. While the jackfruit cooks, warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat. To serve, spoon the spicy jackfruit mixture onto warm tortillas and top with your choice of vegan toppings: avocado slices, lime wedges, fresh cilantro, diced onions, or vegan sour cream.
