Jackfruit is an amazingly versatile alternative to meat. Breaded, it turns into deliciously crispy nuggets here. And without guilt, because they are baked in the oven!

Ingredients

Ingredients for 4 portions

A can of jackfruit (400g)

100 ml unsweetened soy drink

25 g Flour

100 g Breadcrumbs (or stale bread, crushed in a mixer)

50 g mashed fried onions (or crushed unsweetened cornflakes)

Spices (smoked paprika, pepper, garlic powder, Herbes de Provence)

1 EL Soy sauce

1 TL Sriracha sauce

Preparation

Rinse the jackfruit pieces and pull them apart in a bowl.

Add all the spices, soy sauce and the Sriracha sauce. Mix everything with your fingers to fully coat the jackfruit.

Take a handful of jackfruit and press it together firmly to squeeze out all the liquid. Shape into a ball and flatten it. Set aside. Repeat with the remaining jackfruit mixture.

In a deep plate mix the soy drink and the flour. In a second deep plate mix the breadcrumbs and fried onions.

Dip a jackfruit ball into the liquid mixture and roll it in the breadcrumbs. Repeat a second time to obtain a second layer of breadcrumbs. Do the same with all the balls.

Place the jackfruit nuggets in an air fryer and cook for ten minutes at 180°C. Alternatively, you can use the oven. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees and bake for 10 to 15 minutes. Lightly brush with olive oil beforehand. Do not let them burn!

Enjoy the nuggets with a homemade sauce or some soy sauce.
