Method:
Sweet Potato:
- Heat oven to 180C
- Chop the sweet potato in half and then into eighths (wedge shapes) into a large roasting tray. Sprinkle with the maldon salt and paprika and drizzle with oil, give it all a good shake so its evenly coated and then place in oven.
- While the wedges are in the oven prepare the sides.

- After 20 minutes turn over the sweet potato. After around 35-40 minutes the wedges should be cooked.
- Transfer to a plate and top with the sour cream, guacamole and salsa.
Tomato & Pomegranate Salsa:
Ingredients:
- 1 large tomato
- 1 bowl mixed tomatoes (cherry, plum and yellow… I found these ones already mixed at Morrisons.)
- 1 Pomegranate
- 2-3 sprigs coriander
- 1/2 lime
- 1 red jalepeno (6-7 pieces from a jar.)
Method:
- Dice the large tomato and quarter the bowl of small tomatoes and mix in a large bowl.
- Half the pomegranate and retrieve the seeds by whacking a large spoon against the non exposed side, mix into the bowl.
- Dice the jalepeno and chop the coriander into the bowl.
- Finish off with a good squeeze of 1/2 a lime and a sprinkle of salt and pepper..
Guacamole:
Ingredients:
- 2 very ripe avocados.
- 3-4 sprigs fresh coriander.
- 1 tsp smoked ground paprika
- 1/4 chilli powder (or 1-2 drops tabasco sauce)
- 1/2 lime juice
- 1 Red jalapeno (6-7 pieces from a jar)
- pinch of maldon salt and pepper.
Optional –
1 tbs Sour cream
1 heaped tbs of crumbled Blue cheese (Stilton)
Method:
- Mash the avocados with a squeeze of half the lime juice to keep it from going brown too quickly.
- Add the salt and pepper and spices.
- Dice the red jalapeño and add to the guacamole.
- Roughly chop coriander and mix into the guacamole.
- Finish with a sprinkle of paprika to finish it off or mix in the sour cream and blue cheese.
