Instructions

Get Prepped
1

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

Chop the sweet potatoes into 2cm wide wedges (no need to peel).

Put the sweet potato wedges onto a large baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper, sprinkle over the roasted spice and herb blend, 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 golden, 25-35 mins. Turn halfway through.

Make your Sauce
2

Meanwhile, drain and rinse the butter beans in a sieve.

Heat a large saucepan on medium-high heat (no oil).

Once hot, stir in the passata, butter beans, red wine stock paste and water for the sauce (see pantry for amount).

Mix to combine, then bring to the boil.

3

Once the beans and sauce are boiling, lower to a simmer.

Simmer the sauce until thickened slightly, 7-8 mins. 

Mix it All Together
4

Once the sweet potato is cooked, stir it through the sauce along with the harissa, honey and butter (see pantry for both amounts).

Add the spinach a handful at a time until wilted and piping hot. Simmer for 3-4 mins.

Get Toasty
5

Meanwhile, halve the ciabatta.

If you're using the toaster, toast the ciabatta in your toaster until golden. If you're using the oven, pop them into the oven to warm through, 2-3 mins.

Spread some butter (if you have any) over the ciabatta.

Serve Up
6

Spoon the harissa butter beans into your serving bowls. Crumble over the Greek style salad cheese.

Serve with your buttery ciabatta alongside.

Sprinkle over the crispy onions.
