Ingredients

½Cup mezete Classic Tahini Sauce (plus extra for garnish)
4 Large Sweet Potatoes
250g Minced Veal
1 Small Onion, chopped
2 Garlic Cloves, crushed
1 Tsp Pomegranate Molasses
1 Tbsp Tomato Paste
3 Tbsp Olive Oil
Salt and Black Pepper, to taste
½ Tsp Mixed Spices

How to make

  • Step 1. Roast the Sweet Potatoes:

    Wash the sweet potatoes well, keeping the skins intact. Wrap each sweet potato in tin foil. Roast in the oven at 200°C for 20 minutes, or until tender when pierced with a fork.

  • Step 2. Prepare the Meat Filling:

    In a frying pan over medium heat, stir the onions and garlic in olive oil until they wilt. Add the minced veal, then stir in the tomato paste, pomegranate molasses, and mezete Classic Tahini Sauce. Season with salt, black pepper, and mixed spices. Reduce to low heat and cook until the meat is tender and fully cooked.

  • Step 3. Assemble the Dish:

    Once the sweet potatoes are cooked, cut each one in half lengthwise. Top each half with the meat mixture and drizzle extra mezete Classic Tahini Sauce over the filling.

Garnish

Garnish with fresh parsley or additional pomegranate seeds, if desired.
