How to Prepare Roast Jackfruit Rolls [Vegan]

  1. Drain the jackfruit into a colander and break the chunks apart so you have stringy pieces. Squeeze to remove excess water and place into a large bowl.
  2. In a small bowl, combine the olive oil, lemon juice, onion powder, garlic powder, herbs, nutmeg, cayenne, pepper, salt, and nutritional yeast. Mix well to create a paste.
  3. Pour the paste over the jackfruit, mixing well to make sure it’s evenly coated. Cover and place in the fridge for at least a couple of hours.
  4. Preheat your oven to 320°F and grease a baking tray with olive oil spray, or line with baking paper.
  5. Take the jackfruit out of the oven and spread it evenly onto the tray. Spray with a little extra olive oil and sprinkle with a little more brown sugar (optional).
  6. Bake for 30 minutes, or until golden. Some crunchy bits are good, but you still want majority of the jackfruit to be tender.
  7. Cut the rolls and stuff them with shredded lettuce before adding the jackfruit and a generous drizzle of vegan mayonnaise.
