Jackfruit and Potato Hash Recipe using Canned Jackfruit
Make a tasty breakfast potato hash with canned jackfruit. Young, green jackfruit makes a great meat substitute that works well in this classic breakfast recipe of potato and peppers. Canned jackfruit is easy to use, it's inexpensive, and a very versatile ingredient. Unripe jackfruit adds a nice texture when pulled apart, and its neutral flavor makes it ideal for many recipes. If you like breakfast hash with a bit of sausage, next time pick up a can of jackfruit and give it a try instead. You can use jackfruit in all kinds of recipes, including faux pulled pork BBQ, meatless tacos, and I've even used it in Indian recipes.

Ingredients for Jackfruit Potato Hash
1 20oz can young, green JACKFRUIT
1 cup chopped POTATO (any kind you like, sweet potato makes a nice change-up)
½ cup chopped ONION
chopped PEPPERS (I like using a combo of jalapeno and bell peppers, but use whatever you prefer)
finely chopped GARLIC (optional, but always a good idea)
1 tsp CUMIN POWDER
1 tsp PAPRIKA
1 tsp TURMERIC
2 Tbsp WORCERSTERSHIRE
some SALT and PEPPER
How to Make Jackfruit Potato Hash
Rinse and drain Jackfruit.
Shred it. I do this by hand, it's very easy, but you can use a knife, too.
Heat oil in a skillet on medium high heat.
Add chopped onion and peppers and saute 3-4 minutes.
Add garlic and cook 1 minute.
Add seasoning and mix well, continue sauteing for another minute.
Add in shredded jackfruit and Worcestershire sauce and mix well.
Raise skillet heat and add in potato. Add 1 can of water and mix.
Cover skillet and allow ingredients to come to a bubble.
Reduce heat to a simmer and continue cooking until potatoes are near done.
Remove cover and continue cooking hash until potatoes are done.
Serve as a breakfast side or the main dish.
Top with eggs, if desired.
What is Jackfruit?
Jackfruit is exactly what it sounds like, a fruit, but it's HUGE. A 50 pound jackfruit is not uncommon. This giant tropical fruit grows on
trees and is very popular in Asia. Unripe, jackfruit can be treated like a starch, cooked and used in savory dishes. Ripened jackfruit can be eaten raw and is very
juicy and sweet; quite a combo. Buying and cleaning a fresh jackfruit is quite an chore. For me, canned jackfruit is a perfect ingredient. I prefer unripe,
young, green jackfruit and find it to be a terrific ingredient to experiment with in a variety of recipes. The texture of unripe jackfruit makes it a fantastic faux meat,
and the mildness of its flavor allows it to be incredibly versatile.
I've used it as a meatless pulled pork BBQ, as a faux meat filling in tacos, in an Indian-style variation of Jackfruit Tikka Masala, and as a potato hash for breakfast.
It's readily available at Asian markets, and well worth giving a try.
