Ingredients

  • 1 can Coles Nature's kitchen jackfruit, drained

    2 tbsp Squeaky Gate extra virgin olive oil

    1 white onion, half sliced, half diced

    2 cloves garlic, minced

    ½ cup vegetable stock

    1 tsp Coles ground cumin

    1 tsp Coles smoked paprika

    1 tsp Coles dried oregano

    2 tsp Coles Finest maple syrup

    1 ripe avocado, peeled

    2 limes

    1 cup coriander sprigs

    Pinch of Coles Sea salt

    Coles Black pepper

    12 small tortillas, warmed

Method

  • Chop the jackfruit chunks into thin slices from the core to the outside edge to make sure the tougher core section is chopped up as much as possible.

    Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan and cook the onion and garlic for 2 minutes to soften. Add in the chopped jackfruit along with the cumin, paprika, and oregano. Let the spices cook off then pour in the stock, half the maple syrup, salt, and pepper. Continue to cook for 5 minutes, or until the jackfruit has softened and the stock has been absorbed.

    Meanwhile, place the avocado flesh into a blender with the juice of 1 lime, remaining maple syrup, half the coriander, a pinch of salt. Blitz until smooth and creamy.

    To serve, spoon some of the jackfruit mixture onto the base of the tacos. Drizzle with the avocado cream and scatter with diced onion, coriander sprigs, and lime wedges on the side.
