  1. ROASTED SWEET POTATO

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the sweet potato pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).

  2. SUMAC SALSA

    In a bowl, combine the diced onion, the chopped parsley, the chopped walnuts, ⅔ of the sumac spice, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside.

  3. A TOUCH OF FRESHNESS

    In a bowl, toss together the rinsed salad leaves, the cucumber ribbons, the remaining sumac spice, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning.

  4. FLAVOURFUL SAUTÉ

    When the sweet potatoes are done, place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the grated garlic, the chilli flakes (to taste), and the chopped coriander until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Toss through the roasted sweet potato pieces. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  5. PERFECT FISH

    Place a non-stick pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). When hot, fry the fish until golden, 3-4 minutes per side. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter (optional) and season.

  6. LEBANESE FEAST

    Plate up the fish and top with the fragrant sumac salsa (to taste). Side with the roasted batata harra and ribboned cucumber salad. Serve with the hummus (use the back of a spoon to create a swirl on the surface and drizzle with olive oil.) Sahtein, Chef!
