    Method

    • step 1

      Rinse, drain and shake out any excess water through a sieve and chop roughly.
    • step 2

      Heat the oil in a large, non-stick frying pan, add the minced garlic and fry for 2-3 minutes until the garlic turns slightly golden in colour. Add the onion and cook for 2-3 minutes.
    • step 3

      Add in the chopped jackfruit and water, reduce the heat to medium and cover the lid simmer until all water is evaporated, takes about 5 minutes.
    • step 4

      Use a potato masher and mash until all the jackfruit and tie apart. You may also use a fork to "pull" as well.
    • step 5

      Add 2 tbsp barbecue sauce and salt, mix and stir for other 7-8 minutes. The pulled jackfruit should be a bit brown, dry and curve up on the edge, even a few strands get a bit burnt.
    • step 6

      Turn off the heat and 2 tbsp barbecue sauce, mix well, so all the jackfruit is well cooked and saucy.
    • step 7

      Remove it from the heat and serve it on a burger bun with pickled cucumbers, tomato, avocado and green salad leaves.
