Method
In a large frying pan over medium heat sauté onion and garlic in olive oil for 2-3 minutes or until softened. Add jackfruit with tomato paste, cumin, chilli powder, smoked paprika and stir for 1 minute, allowing spices to become fragrant. Add coconut sugar, coconut aminos, vegetable broth, salt and lime juice. Stir to cover all jackfruit with seasoning then reduce heat and cook for 4-5 minutes.
Use two forks to pull the jackfruit apart, creating a shredded consistency.
On a frying pan over medium heat warm up the corn tortillas and cook them for 30 seconds on each side.
