Stuffing with Young Jackfruit

 Young jackfruit can be cooked and it has an interesting consistency. Here is how to prepare it:




I made a simple stuffing for burritos:

1 small unripte jackfruit 1.5 to 2 lbs.

1 tbsp panch puran

1 red onion, cut up fine

1 white onion cut up fine

3-4 cloves of garlic,

1-2 carrots cut up

1/2 tbsp ground ginger

1 cup of water with 1 tsp Yondu to caramelize the onions.

2 cups of veggie broth

mixed peppers, cut up fine, bell peppers, and some jalapeƱo, serrano, and/or thai chilis

1/2 napa cabbage

1 6 Oz can of tomato puree


Directions:

  1. heat the panch puran until it begins to pop
  2. add the peppers and onions, the garlic and the ginder
  3. add in the water with Yondu, keeping the heat high and slowly and the water until the onions get soft.
  4. Lower the heat, and add in the cut-up jackfruit and the veggie broth broth.
  5. Let it simmer until the jackfruit is soft and can be easily pulled apart.
  6. shred the cabbage let it simmer until just cooked
  7. add in the tomato paste
Server in whole wheat burritos over brown rice

An easy meal.
