Ingredients for vegan young jackfruit salad

Preparation Steps

Preparing the Ingredients

Wash and remove any wilted leaves from the lettuce and herbs, then let them drain. Cut them into bite-sized pieces.

For the young jackfruit, whether store-bought or freshly picked, you’ll need to prepare it carefully to remove the sap:

• Soak the jackfruit in a basin of water with a bit of salt
• Use a knife to peel off the outer skin
• Rinse thoroughly with water and cut in half

Boil a pot of water, add the jackfruit, and cook for about 20-30 minutes until it’s tender but not too soft. Overcooking can make it lose its delightful crunch. Remove from the pot, let it cool, then remove the core and tear into bite-sized pieces.

Making the Dressing

Sauté the shallot in cooking oil until fragrant, then remove and set aside. Use the remaining oil to sauté the minced garlic and chopped chili peppers.

Once the garlic is fragrant, add:

• 1 tablespoon vegetarian fish sauce
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 1 teaspoon vegetarian seasoning powder

Stir until the sugar and seasonings dissolve, then turn off the heat and let it cool. Squeeze the juice from the limes (you can use tamarind or kumquats instead if preferred).

Mixing the Salad

Place the shredded jackfruit in a large bowl, then add:

• Lettuce and herbs
• Fried shallots
• Crushed roasted peanuts (reserve some to sprinkle on top)
• Dressing and lime juice

Mix all the ingredients well. Let it sit for about 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Final Product and Enjoyment

After the flavors have melded, scoop the salad onto a plate and sprinkle with more crushed roasted peanuts. The vegan young jackfruit salad, with its harmonious sweet, sour, spicy, and salty flavors, is delicious served with hot rice or as an appetizer.

This dish is not only tasty but also nutritious, perfect for those who follow a vegan diet or want to switch up their daily meals.
