Vegan tacos with jackfruit

It is once again a Recipe that has blown me away. How versatile can the vegan cuisine please be? I am thrilled every day anew. Last weekend we were with friends in Austria and it was just mega! Since our acquaintances are also “almost”vegan, I cooked of course and was once again more than surprised how cheap and easy it is now to eat purely plant-based. One evening we had vegan tacos with bean vegetables and that’s when I got the idea for today’s version with Jackfruit . No sooner said than done and off we go.

Are you ready for homemade vegan tacos?

This Recipe strictly speaking consists of four parts. You can of course choose to make everything yourself, or at least buy the tacos. I made the soft shell tacos myself and thought they were mega good. However, there are already good variants in the organic supermarket and if time is short, then it is worth resorting to a ready-made product. Otherwise, the preparation of the dough is simple and after a short rest of 30 minutes you can also start already. But the most important ingredient is the spicy Jackfruit . Onion, garlic granules, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander, cinnamon, sambal olek, tomato paste, soy sauce, maple syrup, pepper, liquid smoke and apple cider vinegar. Sauté briefly so that everything combines well and then off to the oven for great roasted flavors.

Jackfruit is a real all-rounder

The only thing missing are the salsas. For the tomato salsa we need tomatoes (oh really?) Jokes aside! Yes, Tomatoes, green onion, lime juice, maple syrup, a pinch of salt and Pepper to taste.

Our tacos become perfectly round with a refreshing yogurt sauce. Coconut yogurt, lime juice, salt and pepper. That’s it! Now it’s up to you what else you’d like in your tacos. Lettuce leaves, cucumbers, lactic fermented vegetables , corn and much more. You decide! I purposely went for a more minimalist version and thought it was pretty darn tasty.

Anleitung
 

  • FOR THE SOFTSHELL TACOS, place all ingredients in a large bowl or food processor fitted with a dough program and knead well once until a uniform, smooth dough is formed. Depending on the type of flour, you may need a little more flour (if too wet) or more water (if too dry) until the dough is ideal. The dough should be evenly kneaded, with a nice smooth surface. Cover with a kitchen towel and let rest for 30 minutes .
    ½ tbspn Baking powder, ½ tbspn Salt, 30 ml Olive oil, 120 ml Warm water, 200 g fine spelt flour type630
  • Heat pan and coat with a little baking oil. I do this with a silicone brush to save oil.
    30 ml Frying oil
  • After resting time, divide dough into 10 equal portions and shape into small round balls. On a floured work surface, roll out one ball flat and one round.
  • Place in pan and bake for 1-2 minutes per side. Not too long, otherwise they will turn brown and dry. Repeat process until all tacos are baked and stack on top of each other, this will keep them nice and warm. Set aside.
  • FOR THE JACKFRUIT , take jackfruit pieces from the can and strain (do not need to wash). Tear into small pieces with your hands, using the firm end.
    800 g Canned young jackfruit, 30 ml Frying oil, 110 g red onion, 1 tbspn Garlic granules or 2 cloves of garlic, 1 tbspn Cumin, 1 tbspn Paprika powder, 1 tbspn Coriander, ¼ tbspn Cinnamon, 1 tbspn Sambal Olek, 30 g Tomato paste, 30 ml maple syrup, 45 ml Tamari, Black pepper to taste, ½ tbspn liquid smoke, 15 ml Apple cider vinegar
