Ingredients

  • 2 cups young jackfruit, shredded
  • 1 cup BBQ sauce (vegan)
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 red onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup coleslaw (vegan)
  • 4 whole grain rolls
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp cumin powder
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional)

Мethod of preparation

1. Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the thinly sliced red onion and sauté until it becomes translucent, about 5-7 minutes. 2. Add the shredded jackfruit to the pan and stir to combine with the onions. Cook for another 5 minutes, allowing the jackfruit to soften. 3. Sprinkle the smoked paprika, garlic powder, cumin powder, salt, and pepper over the jackfruit mixture. Stir well to coat the jackfruit and onions with the spices. 4. Pour the vegan BBQ sauce over the jackfruit mixture and stir until everything is well coated. Let it simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the jackfruit is tender and has absorbed the flavors of the sauce. 5. While the jackfruit cooks, prepare the whole grain rolls by toasting them lightly in a separate pan or in the oven. 6. Once the BBQ jackfruit mixture is ready, assemble the sandwiches. Start by placing a generous amount of the BBQ jackfruit on the bottom half of each roll. 7. Top the jackfruit with a handful of vegan coleslaw for a crunchy contrast. 8. Place the top half of the roll on the sandwich and press gently to secure. 9. Garnish with fresh, chopped cilantro if desired, and serve immediately. 10. Enjoy your Vegan Smoky BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich with a side of your choice.
