What you'll need

  • 4 large sweet potatoes
  • 1 tablespoon ghee
  • 1 medium onion , diced
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 450 g turkey mince
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • ½ teaspoon (ground cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground coriander
  • ½ teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
For the tahini dressing:
  • 60 ml tahini
  • 2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • ½ teaspoon fine sea salt
  • 45 ml warm water

Method:

 

  • Preheat the oven to 200°c.
  • Prick the sweet potatoes several times with a fork, then place them on a baking tray. Transfer the potatoes to the oven and roast for 50-60 minutes, until they are extremely tender.
  • Meanwhile, heat the ghee in a large pan over medium heat. Add the onion and fry until translucent, about 6-7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add the turkey mince to the pan, breaking it up with a spoon. Season with cumin, cinnamon, coriander, turmeric, salt, and pepper. Cook the turkey until it has browned and is no longer pink, about 8-9 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and cover to keep warm.
  • Whisk the tahini, lemon juice, garlic, and salt together in a small mixing bowl. Gradually whisk in the warm water, adding more, if necessary, until a smooth consistency is reached.
  • Remove the sweet potatoes from the oven, then carefully cut them in half vertically and spread them open. Divide the turkey mixture between the sweet potatoes, then top with the tahini dressing, fresh parsley, and sesame seeds.
