Cooking Instructions
Before you start
- Preheat the oven to 240C / fan 220C / gas mark 9 / air fryer 200C
- Line a baking tray with parchment paper
- Pull out a sieve, a medium saucepan, a large frying pan, 2 large bowls, a grater & a measuring jug
Roast the chips
- Cut the sweet potatoes into chips. Place onto the lined baking tray and toss with 1 tbsp oil, half the Mexican spice mix and a pinch of salt and pepper
- Roast for 18 mins
Simmer the cannellini beans
- Meanwhile, finely dice the shallot. Drain and rinse the beans
- Heat the medium saucepan with 2 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the shallot and cook for 4-5 mins, until softened. Season with salt and pepper
- Add the paprika & oregano blend and cook for another 30 secs, then add the beans, passata, vinegar and 50ml water. Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer for 6-8 mins, until thickened. Season with salt and pepper
Fry the turkey
- Meanwhile, slice the turkey into 1cm thick strips and add to a large bowl with the garlic herb paste. Season with salt and pepper
- In the other large bowl, combine the cornflour, ground almonds, remaining Mexican spice and a pinch of salt. Add the turkey strips and toss to coat
- Heat the large frying pan with 1 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Once hot, add the turkey and cook for 12 mins, turning regularly, until golden and cooked through
Roast the broccoli
- Trim the broccoli
- After 18 mins, add the broccoli to the sweet potato tray. Drizzle with 1 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast together for a final 10-12 mins, until soft and golden
Plate up
- Check your turkey is cooked through by cutting a large piece in half; the flesh should be white and the juices running clear
- Reheat the beans if needed
- Serve the turkey onto plates, with the smoky beans, sweet potato chips and broccoli alongside. Finely grate over the cheese
