Instrucciones
 

  • Place a large pot of water to boil, add breadfruit, and let it cook for around 30 minutes
  • Remove breadfruit from pot and let it cool for a few minutes
  • Hold the breadfruit firmly and using a large sharp knife slice into thin rounds
  • Slice as many as you need
  • Then cut off skin and core (You may leave the core on if you like)
  • Gently fold to shape like a taco shell, use two toothpicks to hold it in place.
  • Place on a large plate or tray and repeat this process for all breadfruit slices
  • Heat oil for deep frying, using a pair of tongs submerge breadfruit slices in pan,
  • You can guide slices with tongs if you need to
  • You can leave the small toothpicks in the taco shells and remove them after they're cooked. Or, you can do like I did. If your'e using larger toothpicks, you may need to remove them safely. Be very careful as you need to adjust it in the hot oil.
  • Remove when golden brown
  • Set over tissue paper
  • Repeat this for the rest of the shells
  • Stuff the shell with your favorite filling. I chose codfish/ salt fish
