Line a baking tray with parchment paper

Roast for 25-30 mins, until golden

Prep & fry

Finely slice the onions. Halve the lime. Drain the corn
In the medium bowl, combine half the onion with the juice from half the lime and a pinch of salt. Set aside to pickle
Heat the large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the corn and cook for 2-3 mins, until starting to char, then add the remaining onion and cook for a further 3-4 mins, until softening. Season with salt and pepper

Simmer simmer

Bring to a boil, then simmer for 6-8 mins, until the sauce thickens
Break up the jackfruit with a wooden spoon. Season to taste with salt and pepper

Make the 'cheez' sauce

Heat the small saucepan on medium heat. Once hot, add the cashew cream and nutritional yeast and bring to a boil. Simmer for 4-5 mins, until it reaches drizzling consistency. Season generously with salt and pepper
Roughly chop the coriander

Plate up
