Ingredients:
2 14 oz cans young jackfruit
1 tsp vegan chicken bouillon / boullion cube
1 tbsp nutritional yeast
1 tbsp protein powder of choice (I used chickpea)
1 tbsp methyl cellulose
2-3 lemon grass stalks
1 tbsp corn starch
rice paper
Rub:
¼ cup brown sugar
1 tablespoons paprika
½ tablespoon smoked paprika
½ tablespoon black pepper
½ tablespoon kosher salt
½ tablespoon garlic powder
½ tablespoon onion powder
½ teaspoon mustard powder
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Ahhhhh I’m so glad you enjoyed them!!!! Thank you so much! These are like my favorite haha 😂 I’ve made that chickn for everything… fried it and threw them on waffles, chickn sandwiches. it’s wild!
You are a GENIUS. It’s like my new favorite recipe.
I'm not vegan and those still look pretty good.
unfortunately its jackfruit,not chicken
@@finpro942 imagine being bothered any time some other person you don't even know uses a term that isn't technically correct. Best of luck to you in life friend, you're gonna need it BAD 😂
You seem chill.. i do food videos while i’m high af on my UA-cam channel. I’m more raw & realer than most on here no cap i don’t fake anything 💯im tryna make it out
So Merle does what almost no other vegan/ vegetarian cooks do... and that is give credit to their source.
Sadly, so many will tweak a recipe, even so little as to change a half teaspoon of something to a full teaspoon. And I am certain that so many Merle fans, like myself, know who those others are.
Is it so difficult to give credit for inspiration?
No. It's easy.
Thanks for being a wonderful person and a great cooking inspiration Merle!
Mark from Sauce Stash give credit for sure.
Sauce Stache is a really fun channel to watch if you like science and cooking inventiveness. He has a different vibe than Merle, but I love them both
In Indonesia there's a dish called gudeg, it's not vegan but in it, there's a side dish made out of jackfruit and sometimes I mistook it for shredded chicken.
You can make it vegan. Just remove the chicken
there's actually more like the empal which is fried slightly dehydrated beef? it's hard to say, and eggs, but the jackfruit side dish itself is good on it's own! Usually if you prefer to be vegan, you can replace the meat and egg with fried tofu and tempe which is literally the go to budget food in Indo :')
Hot steaming rice, deepfried tofu, deepfried tempe, and chili sauce. (this is chili, Indonesian shallot (because truthfully, Indonesian shallot is spicier than western shallot), garlic, and some other spices that depends on each family). And maybe sweet soy sauce (kecap manis).
🤭
@@fiftychan9981 Tempe always just out of this place. Ultimate good food
@@desmondanimus1454 They didn't say there's chicken in it, but that the jackfruit reminded them of shredded chicken.
That (young, green) jackfruit ("Native Forest" brand) -- is never sweet. It's a bit sour -- because it is preserved in lime water. However -- you can buy mature, ripe jackfruit that is preserved in sugar water from asian grocery stores used as a desert.
There was something SO satisfying about watching the rice paper peel off of the cutting board.
One thing you should know : the jackfruit we use is the unripe/young one. If you have the real unripe jackfruit, make sure to clean the sap/latex before cooking it. Before chopping, apply oil to the knife. Chop the unripe jackfruit and boil it for 5 mins. It will reducing the sap and soften the young jackfruit meat. After that, you can use it to cook various meals.
(Sorry, english is not my first language, so hopefully you understand)
English is not your first language? Your grammar is better than so many Americans 😂. Where did you learn English? That is seriously impressive.
@@samanthaweiss867 oh really? Good then 😁. I learn it by reading novel, watching cooking recipes and IELTS videos with dictionary help. I did this because there are some good videos and books I want to see, but they don't have Japanese text version yet. So I need to learn English just to understand them.
@@seki2059 you're doing great! It seems like you have a deep understanding of the language. I never would have guessed that English is not your first language based on your original comment.
Awesome! Your English is great!
Love it! Thank you for sharing the recipe! 💚💚💚
Let me know what recipe you'd like to see next!

Love Mark. His most recent bacon experiment was insane. Great video as always Merle xoxo
Love it! Looks delicious. I'm happy you tried this recipe from Marc, I'm always curious to try one of the recipes, but I'm lazy 😂
I gotchu!
Omg the texture looks crazy!
I'm compiling my Thanksgiving dinner, and this may be an addition. Because, its soy free and also I feel rice paper and jackfruit are easier to find than the tofu skins with the other version.
I am brand new to your channel and I am hooked. I love your energy and recipes - keep up the amazing videos!! :)
🥺 omg Suzanne thank you so much
Hear me out… what if after completion of the drums, you freeze them, then bread them, then fry them. Using “just egg” as the liquid before dipping in flour and/or corn starch to give the “skin” more texture.
Always glad to see a video drop from my girl Merle!!
Those are the tiny lady version. I'm going to make the bowling pin sized Medieval version!
They look AWESOME! You almost made me want to make them (even though I hate jackfruit rn)
Omg you SIMPLY MUST try them once jackfruit is back in your good graces!
Mary why are you hating on jackfruit
@@nolow_life maybe she's been recipe testing and is just sick of eating them? Could be the reason
Try this. It really does not taste like jackfruit at all.
Yaaaaay! A new video and I'm super early😁 I absolutely love your video's and the amount of effect you put into keeping us entertained🌱
Love from South Africa Merel🌍
Hello fellow African. I am from Namibia, studying in South Africa.
thank you for the love!
Those look so goooood. Thank you Merle, as always ❤️
You are so welcome!
Omg I’m definitely gonna try it!!!
YES THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE CELSIUS
I've always wanted to try this with tofu skin. I'm told it's easier to wrap around the "bone".
I think so too! If you watch the sauce stache video, he explains why he didn’t use it this time.
Yes and it's taste good too, I always have tofu skin in soup cause they taste sooo good hope you'll be able to make the recipe with the tofu skin soon
This recipe looks fenomenal, I'll have to try it.
those look SO good!
Yo these look incredible. I wonder if you'd be able to make this without the "bone" and essentially make your own vegan chicken nuggets with this recipe. Thank you for your hard work in presenting us these recipes! I'm actually trying to make your vegan lobster roll soon
Yes, definitely - enjoy that roll!!!
My guess is to coat it with panko bread crumbs, try it with the rice paper or without
Omg yay thanks for finally making a sauce stache recipe! Would LOVE for you to try his newest bacon recipe it looks INSANE!
I don’t know why you don’t have a million followers at the least. I love you!!! Your personality is just so fun.
You're far too kind
I'm gonna make them like lil wings with no stick, like boneless wings. This looks so freaking amazing.
Great idea!!
Sauce Stache is the vegan mad scientist! Love his videos.
My laziness is fighting with my greediness. I really want to eat these. I guess I’ll have to make them. 😂😂😂
babe wake up new Merle video
This looks so good! Thank you for your positive energy and exciting people to make interesting and thoughtful food. I do not have an air fryer, would you bake or pan fry these?
You could definitely bake them in a regular oven!
@@MerleONeal Thank you!!!❤️
I always have a wonderful day when you release a new video
That makes me happy
Suggestion, do this with some jerk seasoning. You'll get the sweetness feeling along with some spice.
Love Sauce Stache!
this was amazing!! next time maybe try those faux bones that Sauce Stache used the other time. biiiiig want :)
My family isnt vegan, but we often use jackfruit as a chicken substitute. We prepare it like chicken basically. I was often given jackfruit as a child in an attempt to fool me into thinking it was chicken lol. It never worked though cause...its jackfruit.
i want that 🤤 looks so good
I like that it is vegan. I only cook plant based so I’m always looking for more recipes. I think my family will enjoy this. I make cooking videos too. I’d love to learn more from each other!! Never stop learning and growing! This is a great recipe!
Yum. Looks delicious
You should try this thing called 'Soya Chaap' is soybean granules smooshed together into meat like thing. Please please look for soya chap
Looks delicious I haven't found any canned jack fruits yet & the jackfruit reminds me of the banana flower
trader joes usually has them! but if you don't have those near you, the internet will probably have your back
crispy chicken skin is yummy. I'm not vegan, but the idea of rice paper made into chicken skin sounds intriguing.
It's so good!
Recently went Vegan. Will definitely be trying. Thank you 😊 💓
Great video! I was wondering if you'd ever get a chance to try this recipe. Sauce Stache is really creative, I love getting awesome ideas from both his channel and yours.
I'm so glad you liked it!!!
I'm going to try this with jackfruit, I made vegan chicken with oyster mushrooms shredded in rice paper, freeze them and add flour to fry them up. Thank you
I am going to make these tomorrow, think i am going to try using palm hearts for the "bone". Looks great.
Lmk what you think!’
💚
You can try any Indonesian foods because a lot of Indonesian food was made by jack fruit or they like put them on soup as an additional ingredient or they make as dessert
It's a lot u know but my high recommended is Sayur Nagka ^^
I love Mark so much. His stuff just looks and sounds amazing! On a side note, I've noticed a few Asian guys not showing up in channels I was used to seeing them on. Alvin (Make It Big), Steven (Worth It), and Aria. But anyway, if you or Mark ever open up a restaurant, I'll totally be there!
Alvin is on Binging with Babish doing segments, Steven is on the channel watcher with his buddies ryan and shane and Aria has his own channel doing his own stuff
Why Vss. Why would you watch this on an empty stomach? 🤤🤤 Great job as always, Merle!
you could put a spoonful of that jackfruit mix in the middle of a piece of rice paper and fold it up like a parcel, dredge it in liquid and flour and fry it up like a fried chicken breast for a vegan chkn parm or chicken sandwich/burger. So many possibilities!! I'm convinced we could conquer the world with rice paper and jackfruit
WOW! Amazing recipe. Never thought about making vegan chicken drumsticks and using lemon grass. Clever
This recipe is nice and with the knowledge of methy celulose and protein powder along with the rice paper wrap, one could really experiment with it
in asia, most drumstick are made with sugarcane. i love biting into it even though the flavour does not match the chicken flavour
Look yummy x
You could toss those in Buffalo sauce and dip them in vegan ranch!!YUM
I'm a meat eater but I love vegan and vegetarian cuisine. I'm going to have to try this!
Definitely going to try this, I'm not vegan but I do love making, and eating, plant-based meals because they're fun to make lol
Regarding tongue twisters, the best one I ever heard was a simple 2 words; "Gig Whip". Saw it on Dumbo's Circus when I was kid in the late 80s, w/ the creepy live action full body costumes like at Disneyworld
My gosh you’re a fun gal Merle 😄
🥰
I am not and never will be vegan or vegetarian, but I appreciate your videos.
You might also wanna try his latest bacon recipe. Takes time but it looks super convincing.
innnnteresting!
if using popsicle sticks or other wooden sticks, you probably want to soak the sticks for a bit so the part that's sticking out doesn't scorch or burn
I'd love to hear your opinion on Tofu-Chocolate "cream" pie; I saw it on another cooking channel, using silken tofu and melted vegan choc chips, plus sugar and some other stuff
Amazing video! Makes me want to test this out as a non vegan person! Maybe once I can safely use my stove and oven without causing myself to have heat stroke bc of no central AC! Love the content and you as always! Catch you on the Discord!
I hope you enjoy it! Try to stay cool over there I'll be doin the same 🥵
Thanks for trying this out! I wonder if I can make with with tofu skin instead of rice paper
Yes of course! You absolutely can - I'm a huge fan of tofu skin, get that boost of protein
I think sauce stache has tried that also if I'm not mistaken
Wowwww, That looks so delicious. I want to make this or something similar to trick my family to see if they can tell if its real chicken or not hahah
I made a vegan chicken pot pie using jackfruit and it was incredible.
Ooooooooh is there a recipe for that?
No you didn’t . You made jackfruit pie.
I use the dry pack young jackfruit which is a reddish brown color to make mock beef stew and pulled pork.
The best UA-cam days are Merle days!
🥺
Here in Brazil there are A LOT o dishes with jackfruit imitating chicken, its fucking delicious.
Oh man, this looks amazing! Do you know if I can just pop these in the oven, since I don't have an air fryer?
Any convection oven should work
Do you have any recommendations for Methycellulose substitution?
Is there a way to use the oven and if so how many degrees do you have to put it?
Unless you really want them to look like drumsticks, just make them "boneless" 😊😊 Loved that you tried this!! Thanks for sharing!
Am use celery for stick, and omit cellouse
Is there any way to preserve the water you rinse the veg with? Maybe us it to water your plants?
Hey Idk if you have already tried it but if you haven’t try “Soya champ” its a great substitute for chicken. Doesn’t taste like chicken but the texture is similar to chicken. You can find it in an Indian grocery store ig
Thank you!!
Sauce stache is a genius.
I want to try vegan for a few months I’d love to quit cheese but fuck it’s soo good!
do you know what the protein powder is necessary for? can i replace it?
Hey can you make a vegan meat recipe that doesn't contain cashews, soy, jackfruit or chickpeas since I'm allergic to those things and would love to find a substitute
Might actually make this, that looks supes delicious. Probably would work just as nuggets (then I don't have to use the lemongrass)
100% would work as nugz
Sauce Stache!! He’s amazing!
They look great 👍. However, I would use hot vegan hot 🔥 sauce instead of vegan butter. I love Sauce Stache, I watch his UA-cam videos 📹 all the time. I have made many if his recipes, they were awesome.
That's pretty impressive!
Merle: "Remember how we saved that broth?"
Merle's thought bubble: "Remember how I saved it, but you threw it out?"
lmaoooo
Love the "lil rascal" edit at 6:21
lmao thank you for noticing!
Those shredded jackfruit reminded me of tuna. Wondering if we could make tuna mayo
Thee Burger Dude recently posted this Tuna salad recipe with jackfruit. Been dying to try it ua-cam.com/video/sLVu20BopSI/v-deo.html
RIGHT?! it also made me think you could make an amazing crab cake with jackfruit
Nice 👍👍👍 look delicious 🤤😋
Also, I think there's a company that sells wooden "bones" (chicken bones carved out of wood) to use in recipes like this. I don't remember the name or on whose channel I saw it...
They look pretty good.
A. Soooo up for making this 😋
B. Learned a new amazing word is "FLIPAROONI" 😂
I really enjoyed this video and I’m willing to follow your channel. I just hope you’re doing this for the animals too, not just as a plant-based diet, because normally people who follow a plant-based diet for sustainability, health or as a trend, end up giving it up because they don’t have that urgency to help animals and „miss animal products way too much“.
This recipe looks good. I'll have to find a replacement for the methyl cellulose, though.
I was like is she not gonna tell us the celsius !? Then you did that cheeky smile and I was like ah you tease !
😏
Has anyone found a substitute for the lemongrass that worked in the air fryer?
Now I’m going down the rabbit hole of research papers seeing if I can use sunflower lecithin instead of methyl cellulose. Initially, because I HAVE sunflower lecithin already, but now upon reading I’m seeing that lecithin is way less harsh on your gut microbiome than methyl cellulose is. CONTINUING DOWN THE HOLE I GO! 🤓
Okay so I didn’t find anything specifically on if sunflower lecithin works in place of methyl cellulose (but that they are both emulsifiers), but I found plenty of articles stating that sunflower lecithin is either non-consequential or even helpful for our bodies in some articles, and all articles stating methyl cellulose ain’t that great for ya. Not putting this out to say you should do this that or the other, just taking y’all on my lil research journey with me… guess I’ll have to try this recipe with sunflower lecithin and report back on how it goes!
My chicken drumsticks are a great tasty sub for these vegan ones 😁
🤣
Why do you need the protein powder ?
