Ingredients

  • 4 baking sweet potatoes, around 275g-300g each
  • fine sea salt
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp sunflower oil
  • 1 x 30g pack taco seasoning mix (we used Santa Maria)
  • 1 tbsp tomato purée
  • 2 x 380g cartons black beans, rinsed and drained
  • 15g Belgian dark cooking chocolate, chopped
To serve
  • 4 generous tbsp soured cream
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 2 tbsp chopped coriander leaves
  • 1⁄2 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
  • lime zest, to serve

Step by step

Get ahead
You can make the chilli in advance and chill for up to two days, or freeze for up to 1 month.
  1. Preheat the oven to 220°C, fan 200°C, gas 7. Scrub the sweet potatoes, prick with a fork and sprinkle with a little fine sea salt, which will stick to the damp skins. Bake directly on the oven shelf, but put a foil-lined baking tray on the shelf below to catch any sugary drips. Bake for 1 hour or until soft. Split open (or halve), and top with one of the fillings below.
  2. In a large saucepan, soften the onion in the oil for 8-10 minutes then add the taco seasoning mix and the tomato purée. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute then add the black beans, the chocolate and 200ml water. Simmer for 10 minutes.
  3. Divide the black bean chilli between the halved or split sweet potatoes. Add a dollop of soured cream, sliced avocado, chopped coriander, red chilli and lime zest, to serve.
