Ingredients
 
 

  • 4 sweet potatoes scrubbed and washed
  • 420 grams jackfruit canned and drained - 2 cans
  • 15 ml olive oil or 30 ml water if avoiding oil
  • 200 grams BBQ sauce or one full recipe of my homemade sauce

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 220ºC (430ºF).
  • On a baking sheet, Prick sweet potatoes all over with a fork and place on parchment lined baking sheet.
  • Bake until tender, 45 to 50 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, rinse, drain, and thoroughly dry jackfruit. Chop off the center “core” portion of the fruit and discard. Place in a mixing bowl and break up with your hands to even finer consistency.
  • Heat oil in large pot or pan over medium-high heat and add in jackfruit. Toss to coat and cook slightly for four to five miniutes to achieve some colour.
  • Pour in bbq sauce and mix to coat all jackfruit and turn heat down to medium low and let simmer for 25-30 minutes (can cook longer for richer flavour).
  • Let cool slightly and then split the tops open with a knife and spoon in bbq jackfruit.
  • Serve with vegan ranch or coleslaw.
