Instructions
 

  • Prepare the jackfruit by removing the seeds and core. Cut the flesh into bite-sized pieces or shred it using two forks.
  • If using fresh jackfruit, boil it in a pot of water until tender, about 15-20 minutes. This softens the fruit and makes it easier to shred. Drain well and set aside.
  • In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the shredded jackfruit and sauté for a few minutes until lightly browned.
  • Add the barbecue sauce, brown sugar, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir well to coat the jackfruit evenly.

  • Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and the flavors to meld. The jackfruit should be tender and coated in a rich, sticky sauce.
  • While the jackfruit is cooking, prepare the cabbage slaw. In a small bowl, combine the shredded cabbage and lemon juice. This adds a refreshing crunch and tang to the burger.
  • Remove the jackfruit from the heat and stir in a squeeze of fresh lemon juice. This brightens the flavors and adds a touch of acidity.
  • Toast the vegan burger buns. Spread your favorite vegan butter or peanut butter on the buns, then layer with the pulled jackfruit and cabbage slaw. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

  • This recipe was shared by home chef Geeta Biswas.

Expert Tips

  • For a richer flavor, consider marinating the jackfruit before incorporating it into your dish. This will allow it to absorb more of the marinade's flavors.
  • Adjust the spices to your preference. If you like it spicier, add more chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce.
  • Jackfruit can be quite absorbent, so be sure to use enough sauce or liquid to prevent it from drying out during cooking.

Storage Instructions

  • Store leftover jackfruit dish in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
