Jackfruit Coxinha: Irresistible Vegan Recipe

O Que Você Precisa Saber

- The green jackfruit cooked in a pressure cooker has a filamentous texture identical to shredded chicken without residual sweet flavor. - The vigorous cooking of wheat flour in boiling water with oil forms an elastic, soft, and easy-to-shape dough. - Breading with water and breadcrumbs forms a golden, crispy crust after 30 minutes in the oven.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups of water
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • Filling:

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

Chef Tips

- Grease your hands and the knife with vegetable oil when cutting raw green jackfruit to prevent the sap from sticking to the skin. - Shred the jackfruit pulp, discarding the hard seeds and the fibrous central core for an even filling. - Knead the dough while still warm on a floured surface for 2 minutes to make it smooth before shaping.

Variations

- Add 1 tablespoon of tomato paste and chopped fresh parsley to the sautéed shredded jackfruit. - Incorporate 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika into the filling to give a reddish color and rustic aroma. - Fry the coxinha in hot vegetable oil by immersion instead of baking to get the traditional fried shell.

Substitutions

- The wheat flour of the dough can have 1/3 replaced by cassava puree to increase the interior softness. - The breadcrumbs for breading can be replaced by panko flour or crushed corn flakes. - Jackfruit can be replaced with shredded heart of palm or shredded shimeji mushrooms.

How to Store

Guarde as coxinhas assadas em vasilha fechada sob refrigeração por até 3 dias. Para reaquecer mantendo a crocância externa, coloque no forno preaquecido a 180°C por 10 minutos ou na airfryer a 160°C por 5 minutos.

Can You Freeze It?

Freeze the already breaded and raw coxinhas open on a baking sheet for 3 hours and store in bags for up to 90 days. Bake directly from the freezer in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 35 to 40 minutes until golden brown.

What to Serve With

Pairs with homemade chili sauce, cashew vegan mayonnaise, or traditional yellow mustard. It goes excellent alongside cold pilsner beer, guarana soda, or sugarcane juice with lemon.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the green jackfruit leave a sweet taste in the coxinha?

No; the jackfruit harvested completely green has neutral starch and fully absorbs the seasonings of the sauté.

How to cook green jackfruit to shred easily?

Cut into thick slices and cook in the pressure cooker with water and oil for 25 minutes after the valve whistles.

Why moisten the coxinha in water instead of egg for breading?

The plain water activates the starch on the surface of the dough, fixing the breadcrumbs perfectly and keeping the recipe vegan.

Can the Coxinha crack while baking in the oven?

Avoid cracks by closing the tip of the Coxinha very well and removing all internal air when shaping.
