Ingredients

  • sweet potato 4
  • harissa paste 2 tbsp
  • feta 200 g (crumbled)
  • sundried tomatoes 150 g (chopped)
  • red onion 1 (chopped)
  • mixed leaf salad 120 g

Method

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6
  • Prick the sweet potatoes several times with a fork. Bake them on a baking tray for 30 minutes, until cooked through
  • Meanwhile, finely chop the red onion and sun dried tomatoes
  • Heat a dash of oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Add the red onion and cook until softened, around 5 minutes. Stir in the harissa paste and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally
  • Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven and cut them in half lengthwise. Scoop out most of the potato flesh (keep the skins) and place in a bowl. Add the red onion mixture, sun dried tomatoes and half the feta to the potato flesh and mix well. Season to taste with salt and pepper
  • Spoon the mixture back into the potato skins and place on the baking tray. Bake for a further 10 minutes. Serve with the mixed leaf salad and enjoy!
