Directions

Prep Time: 30 - 40min
Total Time: 10 - 15 min

  1. For the pepper pesto: Preheat Oven to 180°C; roast the peppers, McCain Diced Onions and cashew nuts for 25 minutes until slightly charred and softened. Blend in a food processor adding in enough olive oil for a thick dip consistency. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Set aside at room temperature.
  2. For the pea dip: in a food processor; pulse the McCain Garden Peas, sour cream, mint and maas with seasoning until the texture is chunky yet incorporated. Set aside in the refrigerator.
  3. Place boerewors into a cold non-stick saucepan, heat gradually to a medium heat; the boerewors should be golden and juicy.
  4. Preheat grill.
  5. Meanwhile, deep fry the McCain Sweet Potato Fries until crispy, allow to drain on paper towel; season and place onto a large heat-proof serving platter.
  6. Top with the boerewors, jalapenos, McCain Sweet Corn and the three cheeses.
  7. Grill until the cheese is bubbling and is golden.
  8. Serve Sweet Potato with the pea dip and pepper pesto on the side, garnish with coriander.
