Method

Before starting this make sure to preheat the oven to 220C/200C Fan/Gas 7.

  1. In a bowl, mix together the spices, oregano, sea salt, oil, and lime juice to create a paste.

    1. Add the vegetables and stir.

  2. Spread the spiced veggies across a large baking tray and roast for 25 minutes. The onion and peppers should become soft and charred, and the sweet potatoes should become crisp on the outside and soft in the middle.
