Ingredients

4 medium sized sweet potatoes

50ml of milk

20g of grated mozzarella

20g of grated irish cheddar

Sea salt and black pepper

Olive oil

For the chicken mince

1x 400g of Manor Farm Chicken Mince

100g of smoked bacon Lardons

1tbsp of tomato purée

Half a jar of tomato passata

Method

Preheat the oven to 220oC.

Pierce the sweet potatoes with a fork all over and sprinkle them with oil, salt and pepper. Bake on a tray in the oven for 35-40mins until soft and well roasted.

Once cooked scoop out the centre and mash in a bowl with the milk. Season to taste and set aside.

Place the sweet potato skins back into the oven for 10 mins to harden and crisp.

For the chicken mince fry off firstly the smoked bacon until golden and crisp in a frying pan. Now add the chicken mince and fry until nicely coloured.

Add the tomato puree, tomato pasata and Worchester sauce. Bring to the boil and simmer until nicely thickened. Season to taste.

Place the mince mixture into the sweet potato skins. Top with the mashed sweet potato and finally with the cheese. Place under a hot grill until the cheese melts and colours. Now tuck in. Enjoy!
