SWEET MASH
Boil the kettle. Place a pot over a medium-high heat with 2cm of boiling water covering the base. Once steaming, place the sweet potato chunks in a colander over the pot. Allow to steam covered for 15-20 minutes until cooked through and soft. Alternatively, you can use a steamer if you have one. On completion, discard the water and place the cooked sweet potato in the pot. Add a knob of butter or coconut oil (optional) and a splash of water or milk. Mash with a fork or potato masher until desired consistency and combined.
Chicken & SOME PREP
Rinse the leeks thoroughly and roughly chop. Dilute the stock with 200ml of boiling water. Pat the Chicken pieces dry with paper towel and season. Place a non-stick pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the chicken for 4-5 minutes per side until golden. Add the chopped leeks and the carrot chunks and fry for 3-4 minutes until the leeks are soft, shifting occasionally. Pour in the diluted stock and bring to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes until reduced and slightly thickened.
CREAMY STEW
Once the stew has reduced, add the mustard and the crème fraîche. Mix until fully combined and leave to simmer for 3-4 minutes until combined and thickened. Finish off with a squeeze of Lemon juice and seasoning, both to taste.
ENJOY!
