Authentic vegetarian tacos become reality with canned jackfruit. This large tropical fruit is deceptively meat like in texture, with a sweet, impressionable flavour. It takes on a warm, smoky taco taste in this recipe. Grill it, shred it and pile it into tortillas to be topped with onion, coriander, sour cream and the upfront heat of a Cider Pepper Syrup.
