Step-by-Step Instructions
- Drain and rinse the jackfruit, then cut into smaller pieces and shred with a fork. Simmer with half of a diced white onion and a bay leaf in water for 10 minutes.
- Toast the dried chiles in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 3-4 minutes then soak in boiling water for 15 minutes. Char the remaining onion, tomatoes, and garlic until blackened, then blend all with toasted spices and apple cider vinegar until smooth.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sauté the sliced oyster mushrooms for about 5-7 minutes. Incorporate the shredded jackfruit and cook together for an additional 5 minutes.
- Pour the prepared sauce over the sautéed mixture and add vegetable broth. Bring to a gentle simmer, cover, and cook for 25 minutes.
- Dip a corn tortilla in the warm birria broth, then place on a clean surface. Add vegan cheese, followed by jackfruit and mushroom filling. Fold and cook in a skillet until crispy and golden.
- Serve warm, garnished with chopped cilantro and diced onion, with a small bowl of birria broth on the side.

Notes
Properly rinse jackfruit to prevent briny taste. Adjust spicing to your preference.
