INGREDIENTS
Sweet Potato:
2lb / 1kg Sweet Potatoes, scrubbed with skins left on (preferably around 2″ in diameter)
2.5 tbsp Olive Oil
1 tsp EACH: Smoked Paprika, Cumin
1/2 tsp EACH: Ground Coriander, Salt
1/4 tsp Cayenne Pepper
Guac:
3x 9oz/250g ripe (but not bruised) Avocados, pitted & halved
7oz / 200g Bacon, cooked, cooled & chopped (weight BEFORE cooked)
1 cup / 125g Sun Dried Tomatoes, diced
3 heaped tbsp Coriander/Cilantro plus more to garnish
2 tbsp Extra Virgin Olive Oil (make sure it’s extra virgin)
1 Jalapeño, deseeded & diced
1/2 small Onion, diced
1 Lime, zest & juice
1 small clove of Garlic, diced
1/2 tsp Salt, plus more to taste if needed
🍴METHOD🍴
Guac Seasoning: On a chopping board add onion, jalapeño, 2 heaped tbsp coriander/cilantro, lime zest and garlic. Mix together and dice into tiny pieces. Sprinkle over 1/2 tsp salt and begin spreading with the side of the blade of your knife until a paste forms.
Guac: Add into a medium sized bowl with avocados. Add in 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil and the juice of 1 lime. Gently mash until everything has incorporated, leaving a few chunks here and there. Stir in your last heaped tbsp of coriander/cilantro and most of your sun dried tomatoes and bacon, saving some to garnish (if you want to keep the bacon crispy you can stir this through just before serving). Check for seasoning and adjust if needed.
Sweet Potatoes: Slice your sweet potatoes into 1/2″ disks and combine in a large bowl with olive oil and seasoning. Space out on a large baking tray (use two if needed) and bake in the oven at 200C/390f for 30-40mins, or until lightly charred and cooked right through. Flip once around half way.
Serve: When cool enough to handle, serve up sweet potato disks with 1 heaped tsp guac on top. Sprinkle over some extra bacon, sun dried tomatoes and coriander/cilantro and serve up! See notes for make ahead.
