Sided with a charred corn & pickled red onion salad and lemony avo slices. All garnished with drippings of cashew nut cream cheese and fresh coriander.

HOT Potato
Preheat the oven to 220°C. Line a baking tray with tinfoil and lightly grease. Cut the rinsed Potato in half lengthways – don’t remove the skin! Coat in oil, season, and place on the tray cut-side down. Bake in the hot oven until the flesh is soft and the skin is crispy, 30-35 minutes.
QUICK PICKLE
In a bowl, combine the juice of 1 Lemon wedge, a sweetener (to taste), and seasoning. Add the sliced onion and toss until coated. Set aside to pickle.
AVO-COURSE!
Halve the Avocado and set aside the half containing the pip. Peel off the avocado skin, keeping the flesh intact. Slice the flesh, squeeze over some lemon juice and season. Set aside.
CHARRED Corn
Place a pan over high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, add the Corn and fry until lightly charred, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove ½ the corn from the pan and set aside in a salad bowl.
TIME FOR THE TRIMMINGS
Return the pan, with the remaining charred Corn, to medium heat with a drizzle of oil (if necessary). Add ½ the diced Tomato and ½ the drained piquanté pepper. Fry until slightly cooked down, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the rinsed black beans, the NOMU spice blend (to taste), 25ml of water, seasoning, and a sweetener (to taste). Cook until slightly thickened, 3-5 minutes. Remove from the heat and cover to keep warm.
ZESTY SALAD
To the salad bowl with the reserved charred Corn, add the shredded salad leaves, the remaining Tomato, ½ the pickled onion & the pickling liquid (to taste), the remaining piquanté pepper, ½ the picked coriander, some lemon juice & zest (to taste), a drizzle of oil, and seasoning. Toss until combined.
