Ginger Tamari Jackfruit
From an upcoming cookbook, By Del Sroufe
I make this with tofu often and use it in any number of ways, on a salad, in a wrap, or with stir fry vegetables and rice. It is full of flavor and easy to prepare. When I have a guest who doesn’t eat tofu, I make it With mushrooms or jackfruit.
Ingredients
- 3 Tbsp shoyu or tamari
- 3 Tbsp red wine vinegar
- 3 Tbsp molasses
- ½ Tbsp lime juice
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 tsp ground ginger
- ¾ tsp red pepper flake
- 1 20- ounce can jackfruit drained, rinsed well, then lightly mashed
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Add the tamari, red wine vinegar, molasses, lime juice, garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes in a large bowl and mix well.
- Add the jackfruit to the marinade and toss to coat. Let sit for 30 minutes, toss briefly and let it sit for another 30 minutes.
- Place in a small non-stick baking dish and bake for 45 minutes until the marinade is absorbed and the tofu is browned. Stir occasionally.
