Sweet potato & caramelise­d onion rolls

-

MAKES 12 PREP 20 mins plus cooling COOK 50 mins EASY V ❄ 2 medium sweet potatoes (650g) 2 tbsp olive oil

3 red onions, finely sliced

2 garlic cloves, crushed

2 tbsp harissa paste

1 tbsp tomato purée

½ small bunch of coriander,

finely chopped

320g sheet ready-rolled puff pastry (check the label to ensure it is vegan) dairy-free milk, for glazing

1 tsp nigella seeds 1 Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Pierce the sweet potatoes all over with a fork, then cook in the microwave on high for 8-10 mins until softened. Or, bake in the oven for 50 mins-1 hr, turning halfway through. Leave to cool a little, then cut in half and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Leave to cool completely.

2 Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat and cook the red onions and a pinch of salt for 10-12 mins, stirring occasional­ly until softened and caramelise­d. Add the garlic, harissa and tomato purée and fry for 2 mins more. Tip the mix into the bowl with the sweet potato along with the coriander, then mash together. The filling should be mostly smooth, but not a purée. Season and leave to cool completely. 3 Unroll the pastry sheet and cut in half lengthways into two long rectangles. Spoon half the filling down the middle of one of the rectangles and form it into a long sausage shape. Brush the edges of the pastry with a little of the milk, then fold the empty half of the pastry over the filling and press the edges to seal. Crimp using a fork to ensure the filling is enclosed, then repeat with the remaining filling and remaining rectangle of pastry. 4 Cut the pastry along the length into 7cm-long rolls, then arrange, spaced apart, on a large baking tray lined with baking parchment. The rolls can now be frozen on the tray. Once solid, put in a freezerpro­of container and freeze for up to three months. Brush with more milk, then sprinkle with the nigella seeds. Cut small slashes into the top of each roll. Bake for 25-30 mins (or

40 mins from frozen), turning halfway through, until golden.
