Cooking Instructions
Cooking Instructions
- Dissolve the stock in a jug with 500ml hot water. Finely dice the onion. Finely chop or crush the garlic. Heat a large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the onion and garlic and cook for 3-4 mins, until softened.
- Add the sunflower mince, spice mix and tomato puree to the pan. Cook for 2-3 mins, then add the chopped tomatoes and stock. Simmer for 12-15 mins, until slightly thickened.
- Peel and dice the squash and sweet potato into 2cm cubes, discarding the squash seeds. Place both in a saucepan and cover with lightly salted hot water. Simmer for 15-18 mins, until soft, then drain.
- Make the lime yoghurt. Zest and halve the lime. In a bowl, combine half the zest, half the yoghurt, juice from half the lime and a pinch of salt.
- Roughly chop the coriander. Halve the tomatoes. Place both in a bowl and mix with the juice from the remaining lime, 1 tbsp olive oil, a pinch of salt and pepper. Return the cooked squash and sweet potato to the pan and mash with the remaining yoghurt, zest and a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Serve the chilli over a bed of mashed squash and sweet potato. Top with the salsa and drizzle over the lime yoghurt.
