Our mouth watered when we got the pictures for this tasty vegetarian Burger from The Tongsai Bay! We are curious how the Thai taste buds unfold in combination with the classical burger ingredients. Presumably you cannot harvest a jackfruit in your garden unlike the Eco-Resort on Koh Samui – but most probably you can get jackfruit in many grocery stores as well. Because the pulp of an immature jackfruit resembles the consistency of meat it is often used instead of meat in the vegetarian or vegan kitchen.
We wish you fun when trying the recipe!
Tip:
Should you not find a Jackfrucht or do not want to purchase it because of the long transportation routes, you can also prepare tasty vegan or vegetarian “rissoles” from chickpeas, beans or lenses.
