Mediterranean Baked Sweet Potato

Ingredients

4 medium sweet potatoes
1 can chickpeas (rinsed and drained)
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon coriander, cinnamon, cumin, and paprika
Sea salt

Lemon juice

Garlic sauce
1/4 cup hummus (or tahini)
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1 teaspoon dried dill
loves garlic
Water or unsweetened milk (whatever you have in the kitchen)

Method

Preheat the oven to 400ºF (or 200ºC), and line a tray with baking paper.

Clean the potatoes, and cut lengthwise since this will make it so much easier for you to prepare.

Rinse and drain the chickpeas, then season with olive oil and spices before leaving to dry on a baking sheet.

Season the sweet potatoes with a touch of olive oil before placing them on the same baking sheet.

Leave the sweet potatoes and chickpeas to roast while you’re preparing the garlic sauce. Add all of the ingredients into a bowl, and whisk to combine them. Add a touch of dried dill if you want more of an intense flavour.

If you have hummus or tahini, you may now add it into the rest of the mixture. If not, you can always make your own with our super-easy recipe.

Remove the sweet potatoes and chickpeas when they gold and tender, then set aside so they can cool down
.
Serve with the potatoes flipped upwards, and top off with chickpeas, garlic sauce and delicious garnish.
