  • 1 bulb of garlic
  • 1 heaped teaspoon Cajun spice
  • 200 ml Greek yoghurt
  • 4 spring onions

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C/350°F/gas 4.
  • Quickly scrub the sweet potatoes clean, then slice into 3cm rounds.
  • Place in a 25cm × 30cm roasting tray with the whole unpeeled garlic bulb, and toss with 1 tablespoon each of olive oil and red wine vinegar, a pinch of sea salt and black pepper and the Cajun spice.
  • Arrange in a flat layer and roast for 1 hour, or until soft, gnarly and caramelized.
  • Once done, squeeze all the soft, sweet, creamy, mild roasted garlic out of the skins into the yoghurt, mash together, then taste and season to perfection.
  • Trim and finely slice the spring onions.
  • Spoon the yoghurt across a plate or platter, stack the sweet potato on top, drizzle with ½ a tablespoon of extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle over the spring onions, dish up and daddy dance.
