Method

  1. Put the onion and vinegar in a bowl with a pinch of salt. Massage together with your hands, then set aside to pickle. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C and line a baking tray with baking paper.
  2. Mix the paprika, cumin and cornflour in a bowl. Stir in the oil, then add the swede; toss to coat. Transfer to the tray and roast for 30 mins, turning halfway.
  3. Stir together the buffalo sauce and maple syrup in a bowl. Brush over the swede, drizzling over any left in the bowl, then roast for 10 mins or until sticky and tender.
  4. Squeeze the lime juice over the avocado, then divide the buffalo swede and avocado between the wraps and crumble over the cheese. Top with the pickled red onion and coriander. Serve with the lime wedges.
    • Freezing and defrosting guidelines

      Freeze buffalo swede only. In order to enjoy optimum flavour and quality, frozen items are best used within 3 months of their freezing date. For more tips on freezing and defrosting food, read our article Love Your Freezer.
