¼ teaspoon black pepper

Instructions:

For the Jackfruit:

Heat up ¼ cup olive oil in a medium, heavy-bottomed pan. Add the red onion and garlic, and cook until softened, translucent, and lightly caramelized, about 15 minutes.

Reduce heat to low; add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Cook 25-30 minutes or until onions are completely browned and all liquid has evaporated (note: you can make the salsa during this time).

Once the onions have caramelized, add the spices to the mixture, stirring until combined, about 1 minute.

Mix in the sambal oelek and the tomato paste.

Add the soy sauce, maple syrup, liquid smoke and apple cider vinegar, and mix until fully combined.

Drain the jackfruit, then add it to the sauce.

Squash the jackfruit pieces with your mixing spoon so that the individual fibers separate more. Season with pepper. Simmer the mixture gently for another 5-10 minutes, then serve immediately.

For the Salsa:

In a large bowl, combine all ingredients. Adjust flavor with salt, pepper, and jalapeños.

To Assemble:

Build your tacos according to taste. Have fun with it and enjoy!
