How to cook deliciously - BBQ Pulled Jackfruit Tacos

1. Stage

Shred the jackfruit: Place the drained jackfruit in a bowl large enough to work in. Using your fingers or two forks, break apart the chunks of jackfruit into shredded pieces.

2. Stage

Cook the onions: In a large saucepan over medium heat, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and jalapeño (if using) and cook for an additional minute, until the garlic is fragrant.

3. Stage

Cook the jackfruit: Add the shredded jackfruit to the pan and stir well. Add the barbecue sauce, cumin, oregano, coriander, smoked paprika and salt to the pan. Stir to evenly distribute the spices and cook for another 4 to 5 minutes, or until the jackfruit is browned and slightly crisped around the edges. Fold in the orange zest.

4. Stage

Assemble the tacos: In a separate, lightly oiled skillet, warm the tortillas and add a large spoonful of cooked jackfruit to the center of each. Top with avocado, radishes, cilantro, cabbage, corn, and sour cream (if using). Serve with wedges of lime, for squeezing.
