Baked sweet potato with chorizo

  • 4 x 350g sweet potatoes (skin-on)
  • 1 red capsicum, halved lengthways, seeds removed
  • 2 dried chorizo, split lengthways
  • 4 unpeeled garlic cloves
  • 2/3 cup (160g) sour cream
  • Juice of 1/2 lemon
  • 1 red onion, finely chopped
  • 1/2 bunch flat-leaf parsley, leaves chopped
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika (pimenton)

  • 1
    Preheat the oven to 200°C.
  • 2
    Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork, then place on a large baking paper-lined baking tray. Roast for 60 minutes, then remove from oven and add the capsicum, skin-side up, chorizo and garlic to the tray. Roast for a further 20 minutes or until sweet potatoes are cooked through and chorizo is crisp.
  • 3
    Remove and discard capsicum skin, then slice into thin strips. Thinly slice the chorizo. Set aside.
  • 4
    Squeeze garlic from their skins and mash with the sour cream and lemon juice.
  • 5
    Slice sweet potatoes lengthways, leaving them attached to form a ’pocket’. Spoon in the garlic sour cream, then top with capsicum, chorizo, onion, parsley and paprika. Drizzle over any remaining chorizo oil from the tray to serve.
