Spiced Mexican-style beans served in a roasted sweet potato and topped with homemade cashew cream cheese, fresh vegetables and coriander.
1. Soak cashew mix in 3/4 cup water and lemon juice. Set aside.
Set oven to 220ºC. Halve sweet potatoes lengthways. Rub with 1 tbsp oil, salt and pepper. Roast cut-side down for 20 minutes, or until cooked through.
2. Heat a large frypan with 1 tbsp oil over medium heat. Peel and dice onion, add to pan as you go. Grate in carrot, stir in 2 tsp cumin and 2 tsp paprika. Cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes, or until fragrant.
3. Add beans (including the liquid). Simmer for 10 minutes, uncovered, over medium heat.
4. Blend cashews and the lemon water with crushed garlic until smooth using a small food processor or stick mixer. Season with 1/2 tsp cumin, salt and pepper to taste.
5. Dice avocado and tomato. Chop coriander. Toss all together with kaleslaw and 1 tbsp olive oil.
6. Divide sweet potatoes between plates. Use a fork to press down the middle of each one, making a cavity. Fill with cooked beans, top with cashew cheese and fresh toppings to serve.
Notes:
Serve with a squeeze of lime if you have some.
Make a thicker cream cheese by adding just 1/2 cup water.
