    I’m keen on meat replacements and I recently got a slow cooker so I reckon I’ll give it a go.

      That’s a perfect combination. Jackfruit was made for the slow cooker. Heaps of recipes out there, my tip is don’t skimp on the oil as there’s none in the fruit itself. It isn’t a perfect meat replacement due to the low protein content but does a bang up job in terms of texture. Make at least two tins’ worth. You can do it pulled pork/BBQ style and crisp it up a bit in the oven or air fryer at the end like carnitas, or try some traditional recipes - Sri Lankan curry, Indonesian gudeg, or any Thai curry/soup

      I’m gonna get some tortillas and avos tomorrow to make some smashing tacos
