  • 1 Frypan

Ingredients

Fries

  • 800 g sweet potatoes
  • 2 parsnip
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tbsp barbecue seasoning

Pork

  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 600 g pork mince
  • ¼ cup barbecue sauce
  • ¼ cup tomato paste
  • 1 cube chicken stock
  • 1 cup baby spinach

Cheese

  • 100 g cheddar cheese

To finish

  • 1 spring onion optional
  • 2 tbsp barbecue sauce
  • ¼ cup mayonnaise

Instructions

Before you start

  • Preheat the oven to 220℃ or 210℃ fan bake. Line an oven tray with baking paper.

Cook fries

  • Slice the unpeeled 800 g sweet potatoes and 2 parsnip into 1cm fries. Place on the prepared oven tray and drizzle with 1 tbsp olive oil, sprinkle over 1 tbsp barbecue seasoning and season with salt and pepper. Toss to combine. Bake in the oven for 20-25 minutes, or until golden and tender.

Cook pork

  • Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a frypan over medium-high heat. Add 600 g pork mince and cook, breaking up the lumps with a spoon for 3-4 minutes. Then add ¼ cup barbecue sauce, and ¼ cup tomato paste and crumble in 1 cube chicken stock. Stir to combine, and continue cooking for 5-8 minutes, until slightly reduced and thickened. Toss 1 cup baby spinach through and cook a further 1 minute, until wilted.

Melt cheese

  • When the fries have finished cooking, remove them from the oven. Carefully spread the pork mixture over top, and grate over 100 g cheddar cheese. Return to loaded fries to the oven, and cook for 4-5 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden.

To finish

  • Thinly slice 1 spring onion (if using). Combine 2 tbsp barbecue sauce and ¼ cup mayonnaise in a small bowl.

To serve

  • Serve the BBQ, cheese and pork loaded fries on the tray at the table for everyone to help themselves, or divide between plates. Drizzle the BBQ mayo swirl over top and sprinkle over the spring onion (if using).
