- 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.
- 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.
- Place boerewors into a cold non-stick saucepan, heat gradually to a medium heat; the boerewors should be golden and juicy.
- Preheat grill.
- 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.
- Top with the boerewors, jalapenos, McCain Sweet Corn and the three cheeses.
- Grill until the cheese is bubbling and is golden.
- Serve Sweet Potato with the pea dip and pepper pesto on the side, garnish with coriander.
