Sweet Potato & Mozzarella Salad
with crispy lentils & dried cranberries
If you haven’t experienced a salad featuring bocconcini mozzarella balls yet, you are in for a taste treat, Chef! These rounds of semi-soft, milky cheese is the creaminess this bold salad needs to balance the robust flavours of lentils, bell pepper, sweet cranberries & pickled onion. Fennel seeds & NOMU Cajun Rub elevate this salad to a new level of uniqueness. Finished with dollops of a yoghurt mayo.

ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the sweet potato on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, the fennel & Cajun mix, and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 30-35 minutes (shifting halfway). Alternatively, air fry at 200°C until crispy, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway).
LENTILS
Place the lentils in a bowl, coat in oil, and season. When the roast has 10-15 minutes to go, scatter the lentils over and roast for the remaining time until crispy.
SOME PREP
In a bowl, combine the pepper, the salad leaves, the Cucumber, the pickled onions, the cranberries, the bocconcini balls, a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. In a small bowl, add the yoghurt mayo and loosen with water in 5ml increments until a drizzling consistency.
DINNER IS READY
Make a bed of the roast, top with the loaded salad, and drizzle over the yoghurt mayo. Cheers, Chef!
