Method

  1. Wash and dry the sweet potatoes, then cut lengthwise into 0.5cm slices. Brush the slices on both sides with a little of the olive oil.
  2. Heat a griddle pan over a medium heat until hot, then griddle the slices for 5 mins on each side, until charred and softened. You might need to cook them in batches, so keep the first batch warm while you cook the second.
  3. Meanwhile put the coriander, chilli, garlic, lime zest and juice in a small blender and blitz until finely chopped. Stir in the remaining olive oil, season and pour into a small serving bowl. Serve the hot sweet potato slices alongside the herby dip.
