CURRIED SWEET POTATOES STUFFED WITH ROASTED CHICKPEAS & SPINACH

THE SWEETNESS OF THE POTATOES COMBINED WITH AN AROMATIC BLEND OF CUMIN, CORIANDER, TURMERIC, SWEET PAPRIKA AND A TOUCH OF CAYENNE DELIVERS A WONDERFUL FUSION OF FLAVOURS.








Prep time: 30 min

Cooking time: 45 min


INGREDIENTS ------------------

serves 2


FOR THE CURRIED CHICKPEAS:

300 g [ca. 2 cups] cooked chickpeas

1/2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp turmeric

1/2 tsp sweet paprika

pinch cayenne

fresh coriander

1 tsp coarse unrefined salt

1 tbsp vegetable oil


FOR THE POTATOES:

2 medium sized sweet potatoes: try to pick the same size and shape for even cooking time

1 tbsp tahini

60 ml [1/4 cup] unsweetened soy or almond milk

1/2 tsp cumin

1/2 tsp ginger powder

1 tsp unrefined salt

60 g [2 cups] washed and chopped leafy greens, i.e. spinach

fresh cilantro to garnish


FOR THE TAHINI LIME DRIZZLE:

2 tbsp tahini

60 ml [1/4 cup] water

2 tbsp lime juice

1/2 tsp unrefined salt

1 small crushed garlic cove

1 tsp agave or maple syrup








METHOD ---------------------


  1. Preheat oven to 180C. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Clean and prick the potatoes a few times with a fork. Place the potatoes in the oven and roast for 40-45 minutes or until tender.

  2. Toss all of the ingredients for curried chickpeas in a mixing bowl and place them on the second sheet or in an oven dish. Roast the chickpeas for about 20 minutes, stirring halfway through.

  3. While the ingredients roast, whisk together all ingredients for the tahini lime drizzle.

  4. Bring a small pot of water to boil and gently boil or steam the leafy greens. Drain and set aside.

  5. When the potatoes have cooled a bit, cut them in half and very gently scoop out the flesh (careful not to pierce the skins when you do this). Transfer the flesh to a mixing bowl and mash roughly with the tahini, plant milk, cumin, ginger & salt. Then fold in the steamed leafy greens.

  6. Transfer the potato skins to a serving platter. Scoop the mashed potato mixture back into the skins. Top them all evenly with the roasted chickpeas. Drizzle the whole dish generously with the tahini and garnish with chopped cilantro.
