I'm too lazy to cook and to follow complicated recipes, I'm the kind of guy who is more driven by feelings and vibes when I cook. Anyway, the recipe is: a jar of jackfruit. Ratatouille (bought, from a jar) How to: Boil the jackfruit in the ratatouille for a while (30-40 minutes?) When it is cooked: Add Bbq sauce (bought in the supermarket, obviously). Vegan cheese. Alfalfa sprouts (haha, that's what cows eat. Haha what a funny guy you are, dear flatmate). That's it. I'm so proud of myself, please give me validation.
So I made lazy vegan pulled pork hamburger

Love how simple the recipe is. That's actually something I might try because I don't need to buy two dozen exotic ingredients I'll never use ever again. Thanks for sharing!
One question though: I've never had pulled pork. Is it normal to eat it in an open sandwich? Won't the filling just fall out? Wouldn't a some kind of pocket or flat bread work better?

No, it's a normal hamburger with the two buns. I wanted to show the texture. I'm not good at taking pictures of food :(

Which vegan cheese is that? Looks like it melted really well.

Nice and simple! Did you think about any improvements while enjoying it? Did it seem like it could benefit from marinading in the bbq sauce before cooking?

I think next time I'll cook it in soy sauce or vegetable stock with a few drops of liquid smoke. It was very good, but it was too "liquidy" and messy to eat. I still need to do more research with jackfruit, I really liked the texture.

You could also try some nutritional yeast for that umami / savory boost without adding more salt or liquid.

Looks pretty tasty. I've been wanting to try jackfruit "pulled pork" for a long while now. Now that I've been reminded, I'll have to scrounge some up soon!

This looks great! Does the jackfruit give off too much sweetness?
alex_lofi@lemmy.world · 3 pts · 3y
Hi, thanks. Not really sweet, it's an interesting flavour that I can't really describe, to be honest. Also the BBQ sauce it's kinda sweet so I'm not really that preoccupied with the sweetness of the jackfruit.
