Ingredients

  • 2 large sweet potatoes
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 tsp paprika
  • 400g can chopped tomatoes
  • 1 small avocado, chopped
  • 1 red chilli, finely chopped
  • ½ small pack coriander, chopped
  • 400g can mixed beans, drained
  • ½ x 460g jar roasted red peppers, sliced
  • 1 tbsp coconut yogurt, to serve (optional)

Method

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Prick the sweet potatoes with a fork and bake for 40-45 mins, or until tender and cooked.

  2. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a deep frying pan and cook the onion for about 10 mins until softening. Add the garlic and paprika, and stir for 1 min. Tip in the tomatoes, then bring to a gentle simmer, season well and leave to bubble away for 10-15 mins.

  3. To make the salsa, combine the avocado, chilli and coriander in a small bowl. Pour the mixed beans into the pan with the red peppers. Warm through for 5 mins and taste.

  4. Halve each baked potato, ladle over the chilli and spoon on the salsa. Add a dollop of coconut yogurt to each half before serving, if you like.
