sweet potato dip

our sweet potato dip is best served with your favourite crunchy vegetable sticks, or in a wrap for lunch - lettuce, red bell pepper and avocado pair really well with this! serves: 2-3.

method

• 2 small sweet potatoes, peeled and chopped

• 2 cloves garlic, peeled and crushed

• 6 tbsp water, for blending

• 4 tbsp sunflower oil (you can use whichever you have)

• 1/2 tsp cumin powder

• 1/4 tsp chilli flakes

• salt and pepper, to taste

ingredients

preheat your oven to 220c/fan 200/gas 7.

put the sweet potato, garlic, 2 tbsp of the oil, cumin, chilli flakes, a pinch of salt and pepper (each) in a roasting tray and mix thoroughly.

then, place this in the oven and roast for 15-20 mins, or until the potato has softened.

once cooled, transfer the mixture to a chopping board and roughly dice the garlic and potato before placing the mixture in a food processor (or blender) and blending it with the remaining oil and water until smooth.
