Ingredients
  • 4 sweet potatoes
  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1 onion (diced)
  • 2 clove garlic (minced)
  • 1/2 can red kidney beans
  • 1/2 can sweet corn
  • 1 tsp chili powder
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • Olive oil
  • Salt and pepper
  • For the sauce
  • 2 tsp yoghurt
  • 2 tbsp mayo
  • Fresh Dill
  • Garlic powder
  • Salt
Instructions
  1. 1

    Preheat your oven to 400F/200C.

  2. 2

    Wash the sweet potatoes and prick them several times with a fork. Place them on a lined baking sheet and bake for about 45–60 minutes, or until they're tender when pierced with a fork.

  3. 3

    While the sweet potatoes are baking, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add diced onions and cook until they're translucent, then add minced garlic and cook for another minute.

  4. 4

    Add the ground beef to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through.

  5. 5

    Add the corn and beans. Season the beef mixture with chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir well to combine, and let it simmer for a few minutes.

  6. 6

    Once the sweet potatoes are done, remove them from the oven and let them cool slightly. Slice each sweet potato lengthwise and fluff up the insides with a fork.

  7. 7

    Spoon the beef mixture over each sweet potato, dividing it equally among them.

  8. 8

    Drizzle the sauce over each sweet potato. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired, and serve hot.
