Vegan Pulled Pork
Instructions
Prep:10minCook:1h 10min
When it comes to vegan Mexican food we find that it’s very easy to substitute any meat for a plant-based option. It’s all about building flavours and to cook it in a nice rich sauce like a mole, a tomatillo salsa, or covered in an adobo sauce like we did for this recipe.
Our adobo or sauce is prepared with Gran Luchito Chipotle Paste, that’s already packed with smoky flavour. We blend the paste with roasted tomatoes, garlic and a few other ingredients that help to enrich the taste of our vegan pulled pork.
Jackfruit is one of our favourite ingredients to swap for meat when it comes to vegan food. We love how well it absorbs other flavours as well as the texture resembling one of shredded chicken or beef. It’s also very healthy as well as delicious!
This vegan pulled pork is not only great when served in tacos, but offers many other possibilities in terms of tasty meals. You can serve it in a bun with a plant-based slaw, or use it as a filling to make a quesadilla or a nice warm burrito. You could also use this vegan pulled pork to top your nachos next time you have friends coming over, or simply prepare yourself a healthy vegan burrito bowl for lunch.
Cook up a big batch and keep half in the freezer for future meals! Just make sure it thaws completely before reheating it in the oven. To reheat, place the defrosted vegan pulled pork into a small baking dish, then cover with foil and bake it in the oven for 20 minutes at 180˚C/360˚F.
Even if you’re a fully signed up carnivore you should definitely try our vegan recipes, as they will surprise you! Our favourite recipes are Vegan Tacos and our now famous Vegan Chilli Con Carne.
