1x 400g tin of black beans, rinsed
Handful of fresh coriander
1 red chilli, thinly sliced
Greek yoghurt to drizzle
Method:
Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees.
Place sweet potato in a roasting tray, and drizzle with olive oil. Roast in the pre-heated oven for 20 minutes or until it's gained a little colour around the edges.

Hide AdWhen the potato is cooked through and the onion has been stained lightly pink from the chorizo's oil, remove the tray from the oven and mix in the black beans.
The heat from the roasting tray and its contents will warm the beans.
Cut the remaining onion pieces into slivers as thin as you can manage. Add the onion slivers, coriander and chilli to the roasting tray.
Season with a little salt, and drizzle Greek yogurt over the top before serving.
