    Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium, add the jackfruit slices and cook for 3 minutes to toast the spices and marry them with the jackfruit. Turn the heat down to medium low and stir in the barbecue sauce, along with the water. Cook for 10 minutes more, breaking up the jackfruit as you stir. Remove from heat once the jackfruit has soaked up the excess moisture and resembles pulled meat.
