Prep time: 20 minutes
Cook time: 75 minutes
Total time: 95 minutes
Servings: 2
Ingredients:
2 large Sweet potatoes
2 Eggs (I used duck eggs)
1 tsp chilli flakes
a bunch of Coriander (chopped)
40 g Cashews (soaked overnight and whizzed into a cream with equal part water, and a little salt and pepper (if you eat dairy you could use single cream, double cream or a substitute instead))
Recipe:
- Preheat the oven to 180C.
- Wash and prick the potatoes with a fork. If you want crispy skins, rub the skin with a little oil and sprinkle with salt.
- Bake in the oven until soft, about 45 minutes to an hour.
- Remove from the oven and cut open the top of the potato.
- Scoop out the potato mixture into a bowl, leaving a centimetre or so by the skin.
- Mash the flesh in a bowl with the chilli flakes.
- Pile the mash back into the potatoes, leaving a well in the middle (you can build the mash up the sides if needs be)
- Crack an egg into each well and add cashew cream around the yolk.
- Return to the oven and bake until the egg white is set, about 15-20 minutes.
- Serve, sprinkled with coriander.
