SWEET MASH UP
Preheat the oven to 200°C. 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.
LEEKS & CARROTS
Rinse the halved leeks and cut into 2-3 cm chunks. Place the halved baby carrots and leeks on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven for 20-25 minutes until softened and starting to brown, shifting halfway.
SPICY HOISIN SAUCE & SEEDS
In a bowl combine the Hoisin-balsamic sauce, grated garlic, gochujang (to taste), seasoning, and 15ml of water. Place the sunflower seeds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 2-4 minutes until lightly browned, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion.
LOVELY LAMB
Pat the lamb dry with some paper towel. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Fry the lamb for 5-8 minutes in total, shifting as it colours and browns or until cooked to your liking. In the final 1-2 minutes, baste the lamb with ¼ of the spicy hoisin sauce. Remove the lamb from the pan, and rest for 5 minutes before slicing and lightly seasoning.
SUPER SAUCY
Keeping the pan on the heat, add the remaining spicy hoisin sauce and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring occasionally, until it starts to thicken. Remove from the pan and place in a small bowl.
