Chili is a very tasty and flavourful Tex-Mex recipe that can be easily made in a 100% vegetable way: the version I suggest you here is a truly irresistible jackfruit chili. Chili is a very versatile dish that can be made with different ingredients according to the season, itās perfect as a side dish, to fill wraps, burritos, tacos and sandwiches, or simply to be enjoyed as a stew. The special feature of this recipe is definitely the jackfruit, which, although being a fruit, when cooked, takes on a very meaty consistency.
The world’s largest tree fruit
The jackfruit is the largest tree fruit in the world and, despite its versatility and beneficial properties, is little known in the West. This fruit can be eaten both cooked and raw. Cooked, it has a texture very similar to meat and, for this reason, can be used as a substitute for animal products in traditional recipes, such as chili. Raw, it has a fresh flavour, reminiscent of pineapple. It is rich in vitamin C and has a good fibre content, making it a great ally for a proper intestinal function. If you have never tried it, you really must find out the enveloping taste of this ingredient, it will surprise you.
