Vegan BBQ Sauce
1. Add everything to a small or medium sauce pot and whisk together over a medium low heat. Let simmer for 10 minutes. Taste and season as necessary.
Pulled Jackfruit
1. Drain and rinse jackfruit.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet. When the oil is hot add the chopped onion and cook for 5-7 minutes until the onion is soft.
3. Add the rinsed jackfruit, BBQ sauce and water to the skillet. Stir well and cover leaving to cook on a medium low heat for at least 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
4. Preheat oven to 400°F/200°C. Line a large baking sheet with baking parchment and set aside.
5. Use a potato masher or spatula to mash and pull apart the jackfruit so that it resembles pulled pork. Taste and season with chilli paste (if using) and salt and pepper.
6. To finish, spread the pulled jackfruit across the lined baking sheet in an even layer and bake in the oven for 10 minutes.
7. Stir in additional BBQ sauce if desired. Add to your burger buns and serve.
NOTES
1. Feel free to use your own favourite BBQ sauce instead of this homemade one.
2. Nutrition info below does not include calories for the bun/bread. When I did include the bread is skewed the nutrition by way too much for an ingredient that will vary from person to person.
