Ingredients
Instructions
Cut the jackfruit into thin slices and then chop the onion and garlic.
Heat the oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Once heated, add the chopped onions and garlic and stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the onions have softened.
Add the chopped jackfruit, broth, agave and lime juice. Optional: Add chili powder. Reduce heat and continue cooking for 5 minutes until the jackfruit softens.
Next, use a potato masher to mash all the jackfruit to get the shredded texture.
Warm the tortilla in a pan for 30 seconds on both sides.
At the same time, slice the avocado.
Once warmed, fill the tacos with the jackfruit and avocado slices. Optional: Top with chopped red onion and cilantro.
