1

Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.

Put the sweet potato chunks onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, sprinkle over. theroasted spice. andherb belnd, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

Meanwhile, bring a large saucepan of water to the boil with 1/2 tsp salt for the macaroni.

When the oven is hot, roast the sweet potato on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

When your water is boiling, add the macaroni to the pan and bring back to the boil. Cook until tender, 12 mins. 

Once cooked, drain in a colander and pop back into the pan. Drizzle with oil and stir through to stop it sticking together.

While the sweet potato and macaroni cooks, pick the sage leaves from their stalks and finely chop (discard the stalks).

Add the Dijon mustard, Cheddar cheese and grated hard Italian cheese. Stir until combined and melted. Season with salt and pepper.
