Ingredients
500 gram Sweet potatoes
1/2 tsp Paprika
1/2 tsp Ground coriander
40 gram Silvered almonds
40 gram Pepitas
300 gram Kale
1/2 cups Pitted dates
2 Lemon
50 gram Goats cheese
Directions
- Preheat oven to 220C. Line 2 large oven trays with baking paper. Cut sweet potato into 2cm chunks. Combine 1 tbs oil, spice mix, and sea salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add potato, toss to coat, then place in a single layer on one tray. Roast for 30 mins or until golden and tender, turning halfway through.
- Meanwhile, place almonds and pepitas on a separate oven tray and roast for 3-5 mins until golden and fragrant. Remove and set aside.
- Cut the dates into 1cm chunks.
- Tear kale into bite-size pieces, discarding stems, and place in a large bowl. Toss with 1 tbs oil and season with sea salt and pepper. When sweet potatoes have about 8 mins left, place kale on a tray and roast in oven until wilted and crispy in parts.
- Finely grate the lemon zest into a bowl. Juice the lemon (half for 2P) into the same bowl. Add 1 tbs oil and season with sea salt and pepper, whisking to combine. Cut remaining lemon into wedges.
- Divide kale, dates and warm sweet potato among plates. Sprinkle over the nuts and seeds and spoon over the goat’s curd. Serve with lemon wedges and drizzle with the dressing.
