Ingredients
  • ½ cup water
  • 1 20oz can young green jackfruit
  • 2 tsp coconut oil / ghee
  • 1 yellow onion, chopped
  • 1 ½ tsp cumin
  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 1 lb tomatillos, husked, rinsed and cut into wedges
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • 1 cup fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 tbsp minced garlic
  • 1 can diced green chilis
  • 1 tsp oregano
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 can cannellini beans, drained and rinsed
Instructions
  1. Heat water in a skillet until boiling. Reduce the heat to a simmer, add jackfruit, and cover for about 10 minutes, until the fruit softens and can be shredded with a fork or your fingers. Drain, shred, and set aside.
  2. Meanwhile in a blender, puree broth, ⅓ of the tomatillos, green onions, cilantro, and garlic until smooth. Set aside.
  3. In a medium saucepan, heat oil on medium heat and add onions and cumin. Cook until softened, 5-7 minutes. Add remaining ⅔ of the tomatillos and cook until softened and beginning to brown, about 8 minutes.
  4. Add broth mixture, green chiles, oregano, and salt to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer. Add jackfruit and cannellini beans and cook for 30 minutes.
  5. Serve with fresh cilantro for garnish.
