SWEET ON SWEET POTATO
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the sweet potato wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the NOMU rub, and seasoning. Roast in the hot oven until cooked through and crispy, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway).
YES, YOU PE-CAN!
Place the pecans in a pan over a medium heat. Toast until golden brown, 2-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Remove from the pan and finely chop until a loose crumb texture.
THE SCHNITZEL STEP
In a shallow dish, whisk 1 egg with ½ tsp of water. Prepare two more shallow dishes: one containing the cheesy flour (seasoned lightly) and the other containing a mix of the breadcrumbs and the chopped pecan nuts. Coat the Beef schnitzel in the flour first, then in the egg, and lastly in the breadcrumbs. When passing through the crumb, press it into the meat so it coats evenly. Return the pan to a medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, fry the schnitzel until golden, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan, season, and drain on paper towel.
VIBE WITH THE CHIVES
In a small bowl, combine the crème fraîche, ½ the chopped chives, and the Lemon zest (to taste). Add a splash of water to loosen. Season and set aside.
IT’S A GO FOR GREENS
In a salad bowl, combine a squeeze of Lemon juice, a drizzle of olive oil, a sweetener, and seasoning. Toss through the green leaves, the pepper slices, and the feta.
FOOD’S READY!
Plate up the pecan-crusted schnitzel and serve the golden potato wedges on the side. Pile up the green salad and garnish it all with the remaining chives. Serve the chive-creme on the side for dipping.
