PORK CHOPS AND SWEET POTATOES

Yields4 Servings

4 sweet potatoes about 275g each

1 red onion, peeled, halved lengthways and cut into thin wedges

Pinch smoked paprika

2 tsp fennel seed, toasted and lightly crushed

Preheat the oven to 190C/Gas5; prick each sweet potato with a fork and wrap in kitchen paper; microwave them all together for 10-12 minutes on high (900W) until slightly softened; cut each one into 6-8 wedges and spread out in a single layer in a large roasting tray, together with the red onion wedges

Roast in the oven for 35 minutes until the vegetables are tender and the pork chops cooked through

Squeeze the lemon juice all over and scatter over the herbs just before serving with lemon wedges
