Step 1: Finely chop the garlic and chili pepper and coarsely chop the herbs. Cut the spring onion and shallots into rings.
Step 2: Rinse the jackfruit and fry with 1-2 tbsp oil in a pan until the flesh falls apart when pierced with a fork. This will take about 20-30 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and shred the jackfruit. Let cool to medium heat and pat as dry as possible with some kitchen paper.
Step 3: Heat a wok pan with 1 tbsp oil. First add the chili peppers, after one minute the white part of the spring onion and shallot, two minutes later the finely chopped garlic and let it fry for another two minutes. Be careful not to burn the garlic. Add the jackfruit and fish sauce and cook for a final two minutes.
Step 4: Present in a bowl, serve with lime wedges and coarsely chopped peanuts.
