2 cans (7 oz. each) salsa verde


4 pouches (10 oz. each) BBQ Jackfruit
(We used The Jackfruit Company BBQ Jackfruit.)

OR

2 cans (20 oz. each) jackfruit


6 cups unsalted vegetable broth

2 cans (25 oz. each) Hominy, drained

OPTIONAL TOPPINGS / GARNISHES

Pozole is a traditional Mexican soup, made with hominy (a processed corn with the germ removed) and meat, traditionally pork. Instead of pork, we made ours with jackfruit, a fruit that has the texture of meat. We prefer using jackfruit that's been canned or sold in pouches because much of the hard work preparing the jackfruit is already done.

This recipe is HIGH in sodium. If you're on a reduced sodium diet, you should consider another option.

1. Set the Instant Pot to sauté. Then add the olive oil, onion and garlic and sauté for 5 minutes.

2. Stir in the salsa verde and continue to cook for 1 minute.

3. Stir in the jackfruit and cook for 2 more minutes.


If you're using Jackfruit in a POUCH, DO THIS.

4. Stir in the 6 cups of vegetable broth and cans of hominy.

5. Secure the lid. Set the Instant Pot to “Manual” and “High Pressure” then enter 10 minutes to cook.

6. Wait for the natural pressure release OR 20 minutes after you started, release the pressure with the valve so you can open it right away. (Simply point the sealing valve to venting.)
