Charred Sweet Potato Dip
A garden take on Sweet Potato Dip, built on olive and tomato and finished the way we like it....
The kind of Mediterranean plate you make on repeat. lemon and herb, a proper crisp, and a finish of fresh herbs.
Free to cook
Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the lemon and herb elements, and pat the sweet potato dry so it colours well.
Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the sweet potatoes and crisp until it takes on colour and the edges catch, 4 to 6 minutes.
Stir in the capers and the rest of the lemon and herb flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the cherry tomatoes along with a splash of stock or water, then cook briskly until everything is tender and the sauce clings.
Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.
Finish with the chopped oregano and serve while hot.
Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
