Pancetta & Labneh Loaded Sweet Potatoes
Serves 4 · 35 min
Ingredients
Method
Wash the sweet potatoes to get any dirt off them then pat dry
Line your baking sheet to avoid any mess
Poke holes with a fork into the skin of the sweet potatoes
Place your sweet potatoes in a pre-heated oven rack, 425 degrees
Bake for about 30-45 minutes
While the sweet poatoes are baking, get your pack of pancetta and fry in a pan for 5-10 minutes (you can alterantively use bacon that has been fried and diced as well)
Take out of the oven, leave them to cool a bit then slice them in half (lengthways)
Once split open, slather on labneh (about a tablespoon on each half) or use cream cheese as an alterantive. Then place the cooked pancetta on top. Enjoy!
Notes
One of my favourite vessels for shovelling pancetta/bacon into my mouth is a baked sweet potato! Slather on creamy labneh (or if you prefer, cream cheese) and a generous sprinkling of salty pancetta on top.
These are a great TV night dish or even perfect as a starter or main.
