BAKED SWEET POTATO

Wrap potato in foil with a sprinkle of salt, place on a tray and bake in the oven at 200ºC for an hour until the potato is soft.

TOMATO SALSA

• 3 – 4 medium sized tomatoes, finely diced

• 1 small red onion, finely diced

• 1 chilli (seeds removed if you don’t like it spicy), finely chopped

• Handful of coriander

• 1/2 lemon (juice)

• 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

• 1/2 teaspoon coriander powder

• salt and pepper to taste

• I like to add a little bit of grated garlic too

Mix everything together.

GUACAMOLE

• 1 avocado

• 1/4 of the tomato salsa mix

• Salt, pepper, lemon, coriander and chilli to taste

Mix everything together.

CORN SALSA

• 1 cob of corn

•  1/4 tomato salsa mix

•  1/2 teaspoon ground cumin

•  1/2 teaspoon ground coriander

• Salt, pepper, lemon, coriander and chilli to taste

Grill corn on a high heat so the kernels blacken. You can do this under a flame grill or on a pan.

When corn is blackened, cut the corn off the cob and mix with other ingredients.

BLACK BEAN SALSA

• 1 can of black beans, drained and rinsed

•  1/4 tomato salsa mix

• 1 soaked chipotle chilli (you can leave this out if you don’t have it)

•  1/2 teaspoon cumin

•  1/2 teaspoon coriander

• Salt, pepper, lemon, coriander and chilli to taste

Mix everything together.

Serve potato with everything loaded on top and some natural yogurt and red (purple) cabbage.
