Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 200°C/390°F.
- Peel and cube the sweet potatoes then place in a mixing bowl. Add the oil and spices then toss to coat the sweet potatoes.
- Transfer to a greased sheet pan and place in a preheated oven. Bake for 30-45 minutes or until the sweet potatoes are cooked and starting to caramelize.
- Season the chickpeas with salt, pepper and paprika and drizzle with olive oil.
- Place in the oven and roast for 20-25 minutes until crisp and golden.
- Cook the rice (with turmeric, if preferred) according to package instructions. For jasmine rice, I combine the rice and boiling water (1 part rice for 2 parts water) in a saucepan set over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil and cook until the water has been absorbed then turn the heat down, cover with a lid and allow to steam for 10 minutes then fluff with a fork and serve.
- To assemble the rice bowl, Add the rice to a bowl and top with the roasted sweet potatoes and chickpeas. Add sliced cucumber and red onion and a generous dollop of yogurt. Drizzle over lemon juice and top with chillies and coriander/cilantro. Serve immediately.
