Instructions
Pulled Jackfruit
- Rinse jackfruit under water and squeeze out excess water from each piece. Use a fork to “pull” it so it has a stringy texture.
- Add 1 tbsp oil to a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, ginger, and garlic. Cook and stir occasionally for about 5 minutes, or until onion is translucent.
- Add all spices, the hot sauce, and the tamari. Cook for a minute before adding jackfruit. Cook for 2-3 minutes before adding 3/4 cup water.
- Cover, reduce heat to low, and cook for 10 minutes. Stir once in the middle of this time. It should be done!
Cilantro Garlic Sauce
- For the sauce, simply process all the ingredients in a small food processor.
Assemble the tacos
- Mash the avocado and mix in lime juice and pepper. Heat tortillas on the stove. Spread mashed avocado on one side of the tortilla.
- No add red cabbage, pulled jackfruit, cilantro garlic sauce, and any leftover slices of avocado. ENJOY!
