Mystery Box Challenge
Ingredients
- whole grain noodles
- chickpeas [1 tin]
- sweet potato [1 large]
- sun-dried tomatoes [6 pcs]
- sunflower seeds [2 tbsp, heaped]
- onion [1 large]
- salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Add sunflower seeds to a dry pot and roast on low. Stir occasionally, so they don't burn. Clean and cut onions into small cubes. Add them to the pot with sunflower seeds. Add a pinch of salt and pepper and keep roasting until the onions get brown. Cut sun-dried tomatoes into small cubes and also add them to the pot (presoak them if needed). When the the seeds and onions are golden brown, set them aside. You can transfer them onto a dish you will use later for serving
Fill the pot with water and bring it to a boil. Clean the sweet potato, cut it lengthwise in 4 pieces. Cut each piece into thin slices. Add them to the pot and cook them for 15 minutes
Add pasta to the same pot so it will be done at the same time as sweet potato
When the pasta and sweet potato are done, drain the water from the pot but leave in about 1 cup. Stir in chickpeas and roasted sunflower seeds with sundried tomatoes and onions
Add salt and pepper to taste and stir so that everything combines and heats through
Sweet potato pieces will break apart and create a jummy thick coating
