These jackfruit tacos are so easy to whip up on a busy night ~ and, heavily spiced with coriander, cumin, smoked paprika, ginger and chili powder, they make for a tasty, filling, and spicealicious, vegan meal!

Ingredients

  • 2 tbsp your preferred oil I used olive oil
  • 1 can young jackfruit
  • 3 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp freshly grated ginger
  • 1 red onion
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • Cilantro
  • To assemble the tacos:
  • Jalapeno cilantro, guacamole, shredded lettuce.

Instructions

  • Drain the jackfruit and, using a colander, rinse it well. Then pat it dry as much as you can - then, place it in a bowl.
  • Into the bowl with the jackfruit, add in the coriander, cumin, chili, smoked paprika and mix well so the jackfruit is coated with the spices and set aside.
  • Chop up the onions and garlic and set aside.
  • Peel the ginger root and grate it up (I grate up a batch and save to use during the week).
  • Add the oil to a frying pan over medium heat.
  • Add in the chopped onion and saute about 5-7 minutes.
  • Add in the garlic and saute a minute or so.
  • Then add in the spiced jackfruit and saute about 7-10 minutes, stirring often during this time.
  • When done, season with salt and pepper to taste, garnish with chopped cilantro.
  • Assemble tacos with jalapeno, cilantro, guacamole, shredded lettuce and copious amounts of spiced jackfruit.
