Cooking Instructions and Tips

Roast the Sweet Potato
1

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

Chop the sweet potatoes into 1cm chunks (no need to peel) - you want them to be small so they cook quickly.

Pop the sweet potato onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer. TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until tender and golden, 15-20 mins. Turn halfway through.

Get Prepped
2

Meanwhile, cut the tomato into 1cm pieces.

Drain and rinse the black beans in a sieve, then pop half of them into a bowl and roughly mash with a fork.

Grate the Cheddar.

Cook the Beans
3

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. Once hot, add the tomato puree and Mexican style spice mix, then stir and cook for 1 min.

Mix in the black beans (whole and mashed), veg stock paste and water for the beans (see pantry for amount), then season with salt and pepper.

Simmer, stirring occasionally, until all the liquid has evaporated, 8-10 mins.

Taste and season again if needed, then remove from the heat.

Bake your Quesadillas
4

Once cooked, mix the roasted sweet potatoes into the beans.

Lightly oil the (now empty) baking tray and lay on the tortillas (3 per person). Spoon the bean filling onto one half of each one and top with the grated cheese.

Fold the other side over to make a semi-circle. Press down to keep together.

Rub each with a little oil, then bake on the top shelf of your oven until golden, 8-12 mins.

Make the Salad
5

While the quesadillas bake, add the tomatoes and olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount) to a medium bowl.

Season with salt and pepper, then mix well to combine.

Just before serving, add the rocket to the dressing and toss well to coat.

Serve
6

Once the quesadillas are cooked, transfer to your plates. Cut in half before serving if you'd like.

Serve with a dollop of soured cream on top and the salad alongside.

Enjoy!
