If you’re searching for an easy, nutritious and light dinner recipe, you’ve come to the right place. Vanika Choudhary, Founder of Sequel Bistro & Juice Bar swears by this recipe. In fact, it is one of her favourites. Well, what’s not to like? It is packed with nutrition and is something the whole family can enjoy.

Sweet potatoes are known as a superfood because of their high nutrient content. They strengthen your immune system, promote gut health and protect your body from free radical damage and chronic diseases. Chickpeas, the second main ingredient in this recipe, also pack a punch. Rich in fibre and protein, chickpeas may help control your appetite, reducing your overall calorie intake.

 

Ingredients:

4 medium sweet potatoes

For the chickpea filling:

75 gms chickpeas, soaked overnight and boiled for 40 minutes

120 gms heirloom tomatoes, pureed

60 gms onions, diced

2 cloves of garlic, minced

5 gms of ginger, minced

½ tsp freshly grated turmeric

½ tsp mustard seeds

½ tsp Kashmiri red chilli powder

½ tsp cumin powder

15 ml coconut oil

A bunch of parsley, chopped

Instruction:

Pierce the skin of the sweet potatoes and roast at 175 degrees for 45 to 60 minutes, depending on the size.

While the sweet potatoes are roasting, make the filling.

In a pan, add coconut oil followed by ginger, garlic, turmeric and mustard seeds.

Cook the spices on a simmer for 3 to 4 minutes, until fragrant.

Add onions to the spices and sauté until translucent.

Add the tomato puree, chickpeas, Kashmiri red chilli powder, cumin powder and cook for 5 minutes.

Add water to the mixture and cook on a low flame for another 10 minutes.

Turn off the gas. Add lemon juice and freshly chopped parsley.

Once the sweet potatoes are roasted, slit it and scoop out some of the flesh. Add this flesh to the filling and mix well. Stuff the sweet potatoes with this chickpea filling and roast at 175 degrees for 5 minutes.
