Twice Baked Sweet Potato

I do love a good jacket potato don’t you? There are endless topping choices from coleslaw to cheese, from chilli to beans and so much more! Even a simple dollop of butter will do.

But...they can get a bit boring...

Being a student I most definitely eat my fare share of jacket potatoes! In the winter I can easily eat 4 in a week and it can get extremely repetitive! So, I was determined to come up with a jacket potato with a twist, something new and exciting and perhaps more appropriate for a light dinner as winter moves into spring.

The rather delicious sweet potato was my starting point. I love its soft sweet flesh whether its mashed or turned into wedges, but I’d never actually had it quite simply as a baked potato.

BBQ'd Sea Bass with New Potatoes - AKA Exam Brain Food!

With 3 weeks to go until my 2nd year law exams, the only part of the day where I get to relax is when I'm cooking dinner. As promised, today I cooked some "brain food" - sea bass!


(Now...as students...I know we can't usually afford sea bass! If you do need brain food on the cheap, go to Asda's in store fish monger, for just £1 you can get a variety of fish fillets, for example my favourite is their mackerel fillet with chili and garlic! In BBQ season they also do a trout stuffed with pea, mint and feta all for £1!!!)


If you don't fancy using Asda's cheap and yummy cheats, this is how to do it yourself!!!
