Method:

  1. Preheat the oven to 175c
  2. Wash the Sweet Potatoes, then slice them in half lengthwise and bake them cut side down for 45-60 minutes, or until they are bubbling and tender all the way through (test with a fork).
  3. Mash a little space into them so you have a place to put the toppings.
  4. To make the gravy, blend all ingredients until smooth in a blender. If it is too thin, add more tahini or a handful of cashews.
  5. If it is too thick, add more water.
  6. Top off the yams with the beans, Spring onions, and purple cabbage, then drizzle with the gravy and top with Avo and Walnuts
  7. Serve with sumptuous green salad as always!
