  • Cook the sweet potatoes in an air fryer at 200 degrees Celsius (390 degrees Fahrenheit) for around 22 minutes. Move the sweet potatoes around a few times during the cooking process to ensure even cooking.

  • Cook the rice according to the packet instructions.
  • Once the sweet potatoes are ready and the chilli has been simmering for around 15 minutes, add the sweet potatoes to the pot and stir in. If the chilli looks a bit thick you can add another splash of water.
  • Serve with rice and some fresh coriander (cilantro) leaves. Add a little lime juice and a few nachos to serve if you wish.
