Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9 / air fryer 200C
  • Pull out a small baking dish, a small bowl, a sieve & a large frying pan

Get the sweet potatoes on

  • Halve the sweet potatoes lengthways. Score the inside of the potato in a grid pattern, being careful not to pierce the skin
  • Place in the small baking dish, rub with 1 tsp oil and season with salt
  • Roast for 30-35 mins / air fryer 20-25 mins, until soft and golden

Make the guacamole

  • Thinly slice the spring onions, keeping the white and green parts separate. Quarter the lime
  • Dice the avocado into 1cm chunks, then mash with the back of a fork and place into the small bowl with the spring onion greens, the juice from half the lime and 1 tsp oil. Season with salt and pepper and mix

Prep the veg

  • Halve the tomatoes. Dice the pepper into 2cm chunks
  • Drain the sweetcorn

Combine the flavours

  • Heat the large frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the pork and sweetcorn. Cook for 3-4 mins, breaking the pork up with a wooden spoon, until starting to brown. Add pepper and cook for another 2-3 mins. Season with salt and pepper
  • Drain and rinse the beans
  • Stir in the Mexican spice mix, tomato puree and spring onion whites. Cook for 1 min, then add the tomatoes and cook until softened, 3-4 mins. Stir in the honey and 150ml water, then simmer for 3-4 mins, until thickened
