Serves 4
Preparation time: 5 minutes
Cooking time: 10 minutes

 

INGREDIENTS
400g beef rump strips
550g sweet potatoes, sliced 1cm thick lengthways
1 ½ tbsp olive oil
1 red onion, thinly sliced
1 tsp ground cumin
1/4 tsp garlic powder
1/4 tsp chilli powder
1 avocado, diced
Juice of 1/2 a lemon
250g punnet cherry tomatoes, diced

METHOD
1. Preheat a sandwich press. Lightly spray the sweet potato with olive oil. Cook the
potatoes in the sandwich press for 8 to 10 minutes, turning halfway, or until just
tender. Set aside to cool slightly then slice into 1cm thick fries.
2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a large non-stick frypan over medium-high heat. Cook the
onions for 2 to 3 minutes until softened. Add the beef strips, cumin, garlic
powder, and chilli powder. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until beef is
browned and cooked through.
3. In a bowl, mash avocado with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper.
4. To serve, place sweet potatoes on a plate. Top with the beef mixture, avocado
and tomato. Sprinkle with feta and green onions. Serve with sour cream and
mixed salad.
