Ingredients
- 1 large sweet potato
- 6 tomatoes on the vine
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp oregano
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- Couple of pinches of chilli flakes (optional)
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- Salt & pepper
- 1 cup passata (optional)
- 1 cup frozen peas or green beans
- 4 spring onions, chopped
- 150g raw, cleaned, tiger prawns
- Chopped parsley leaves, to serve
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 190°C.
- Peel the sweet potato and cut it into bite-sized chunks. Cut the tomatoes in half. Scatter them in a baking tray. Add the minced garlic, then dust everything with the spices and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and pepper, then toss well.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake in the oven for 25 minutes. Remove the foil, toss again. Add the pasta, if the tomatoes haven’t released enough liquid - it shouldn’t be dry. Bake for another 5 minutes or until the sweet potatoes have cooked through.
- Now add the peas and spring onions. Put the prawns on top, cover the dish again and bake for 5 minutes, until the prawns have turned pink.
- Scatter the parsley leaves on top and serve.
