Tuna and White Bean Sweet Potato recipe by Jenny Tschiesche

Here the classic Mediterranean salad combination of tuna and white beans is given a twist. Served in baked sweet potatoes, the acidity of the tuna and bean salad perfectly marries the starchy sweetness of the potato.

Method

Based on 2 servings, adjust as needed.

Step 1

Preheat the air fryer to 180°C (350°F).

Step 2

Prick the sweet potato skins, place them in the air fryer and cook for 30–35 minutes, or until they just give when a fork is inserted.

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a bowl, mix together the mayo, drained tuna, drained beans, red onion, lime juice and chilli with a little salt and pepper

Step 4

Once the potatoes are cooked, leave to cool a little, then slice open and fill with the tuna mixture. Top with finely diced cucumber and serve with some rocket leaves, if you like.
