Method
- Drain and rinse the jackfruit.
- In a small bowl combine all ingredients for the jackfruit marinade. Mix well and pour over the jackfruit.
- Place the jackfruit into an air tight container into the fridge for at least 3 hours or overnight for a more intense flavour.
- Meanwhile the jackfruit is marinating in the fridge, start preparing the spicy slaw.
- Thinly slice both cabbages, dice the jalapenos and roughly chop the coriander. Place all ingredients into a bowl and mix with the olive oil, lemon juice, vegan mayo and season with salt and pepper. Set aside (refrigerate).
- Next heat 1 tbsp of olive oil over medium heat in a small saucepan. Add the jackfruit and cook for 8- 10 minutes. Turn up the heat slightly and cook for another minute to get some more colour and texture. If you prefer more texture, you can place the cooked jackfruit on a baking tray lined with parchment paper and bake it for another 10 minutes in the oven at 200 degrees C.
Assemble the Burger:
- Mash the avocado, season with salt, pepper and a dash of lemon juice.
- Slice the buns open and toast the cut side for a 3 minutes in the pan or in the oven.
- Top the bun with avocado, pulled jackfruit, spicy slaw, sweet pickles, vegan mayo and BBQ sauce (optional). Enjoy!
