Method

  1. Put all the ingredients for the salsa in a bowl; mix well, season to taste and set aside.
  2. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Toss the sweet potatoes in the oil, then transfer to a baking tray. Season, then bake for 30 mins, turning halfway, until tender. Toss the courgette strips in the remaining 2 tsp oil and roast on a separate tray for the last 8-10 mins; set aside.
  3. Meanwhile, mix together the mozzarella and Cheddar, Gochujang and mayonnaise. Transfer a third of the cooked fries to an ovenproof dish about 25cm. Scatter with a few jalapeños, a third of the courgette and a third of the cheese mix. Repeat the layers to use all the ingredients, then return to the oven for 5-7 mins, until the cheese is melted. Spoon over about a quarter of the salsa to serve, saving the rest for another dish (see tip).
  • Tip: This recipe makes more salsa than you’ll need. Serve leftovers with nachos or quesadillas, or in fajitas or salads.
