Ingredients

  • Coriander: 1 small pack coriander, roughly chopped
  • Extra Virgin Olive Oil: 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Red Onion: 1 small red onion, thinly sliced
  • Tomato: 250g tomatoes, cut into chunks
  • Chilli Flakes: 1 tsp chilli flakes
  • Lime: juice 1 lime
  • Black Beans: 400g can black beans, drained and rinsed
  • Sweet Potato: 600g sweet potatoes, cut into even chunks
  • Avocado: 2 avocados, chopped
  • Sweetcorn: 198g can sweetcorn, drained and rinsed

Directions

  1. Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. On a baking tray, toss the sweet potato in 1 tbsp of the oil with the chilli flakes, sea salt and pepper. Roast for 30 mins until tender.
  2. Once the sweet potato is nearly ready, combine the remaining ingredients in a large bowl with the remaining 1 tbsp oil and season well. Mix everything well but take care to avoid squashing the avocado. Divide the salad evenly between plates, or serve sharing-style with the sweet potato chunks.
