Chipotle Beef & Sweet Potato Bowl
Made with: Extra Virgin Avocado Oil
Let's Go!
Roast the Sweet Potato
Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C fan). Toss the cubed sweet potatoes with a glug of Extra Virgin Avocado Oil and a good pinch of sea salt. Spread them out on a baking tray and roast for 25–30 minutes until golden and tender or even slightly charred on the edges for extra flavour.
Cook and Crisp Up the Beef
While the sweet potato is roasting, heat Extra Virgin Avocado Oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and cook for 3–4 minutes until softened. Stir in the garlic, then add the beef mince, cumin, cinnamon, and chipotle chilli flakes. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 8–10 minutes, breaking up the mince as it cooks, until browned and cooked through. You want it to be a little caramelised and crispy on the edges, without drying it out. Have a little taste and add a more of any of the spices to your taste.
Prep the Salad
Dice up your cucumber and tomatoes. Give them a good squeeze of lime for some zing. Nice and simple.
Load Up Your Bowls
Spoon the roasted sweet potatoes into bowls. Top with the spiced beef, the tomato-cucumber salad, and a good handful of fresh coriander. Finish with pickled red onion, jalapeños or pickled chillies, a dollop of guacamole, and a swirl of sour cream.
Oooh yehh.
This is a great recipe to start with and flex for different veg or even try a plant based version. Have fun with it!
