Jamie Oliver Jackfruit Pulled Pork Food

SOUTHERN-STYLE PORK & SLAW

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to full whack.
• Score the pork skin about 1cm deep all over with a sharp knife. Drizzle a little olive oil over the pork and season generously with sea salt, black pepper and the paprika.
• Rub the flavours all over the skin, then place your pork in a roasting tray in the middle of the oven and immediately turn the temperature down to 160ºC/320ºF/gas 3.
• Cook for about 4 hours, basting occasionally with the juices from the tray, then turn the oven down to 150ºC/300ºF/gas 2 and continue to cook for another 2 hours, or until you can pull the meat apart really easily.
• Remove the crackling and put it to one side, then remove any fat from the tray. Pull all the pork apart, discarding any bones and fat as you go, and use 2 forks to break the meat into small- and medium-sized pieces. Cover with foil until needed.
• To make the coleslaw, finely slice all the veg (peeling and trimming first, if necessary) or use a food processor or box grater, then very finely slice the apples. Put them into a large bowl and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
• Add the mayonnaise, a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil, a pinch of cayenne and the red wine vinegar. Mix everything together until you've got a perfect coleslaw texture. Taste and season to perfection.
• Pick the mint leaves and finely chop them on a large board. Deseed and finely chop the chilli. Drizzle the olive oil and red wine vinegar all over the chilli and mint and add a good pinch of salt. Add this to the tray of pulled pork and mix it all together.
• Serve the dressed pork in a pile on to a plate next to some crackling and a good portion of that wonderful coleslaw. Finish the whole plate off with a little salt and a hit of paprika and tuck in with a lovely cold beer.

VEGAN PULLED JACKFRUIT

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a frying pan and cook the onion until very soft, for around 10-12 mins. Add the cinnamon, cumin and paprika to the onions and cook for a further 2-3 mins. Next add the Tabasco, vinegar and bbq sauce and mix well before adding in the tomato, the drained jackfruit and 200ml water. Leave to simmer gently, covered, for 30 mins stirring every 5-10 mins to help break down the jackfruit, then take the lid off and cook a further 10 minutes.
• Once cooked, use a fork to make sure all of the jackfruit is well shredded. Check seasoning and add another tbsp of bbq sauce if necessary for extra stickiness.

BBQ JACKFRUIT SLIDERS RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Drain and rinse the jackfruit, then cut into smaller pieces, removing the core.
• In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Once the oil begins to shimmer, add the onion and cook for 4-5 minutes, until semi-translucent.
• Add the garlic, salt, and pepper, and cook for 2-3 minutes, until the garlic is fragrant. Add the jackfruit, chili powder, paprika, cumin, and liquid smoke, and mix well. Add the vegetable broth, cover, and cook for 15 minutes, until the jackfruit is soft enough to be mashed.
• Preheat the oven to 400ºF (200ºC). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Mash the jackfruit with potato masher or a couple of forks, until it looks pulled or shredded.
• Transfer the jackfruit to the baking sheet and spread in an even layer.
• Bake for 25 minutes, until the jackfruit is slightly browned and crispy.
• Make the coleslaw: add green and red cabbage and carrots to a large bowl. In a small liquid measuring cup, combine the mayo, mustard, apple cider vinegar, salt, and pepper, and mix until creamy. Pour the dressing over the vegetables and toss the coleslaw until the dressing is well-distributed. Set aside.
• Remove the jackfruit from the oven, and pour the BBQ sauce over. Mix well.
• Return to the oven, and bake for another 10 minutes, until the edges are slightly crispy.
• Use a large bread knife to cut the whole sheet of slider buns in half. Remove the top and set aside. Spread the BBQ jackfruit on the bottom half of the buns, then top with coleslaw.
• Add the top buns, then slice into 12 sliders.
• Enjoy!
