1

Start by soaking quinoa for at least an hour to remove bitterness if not using pre-cooked quinoa.

2

Chop sweet potatoes into small to medium-sized chunks, optionally peel them.

3

Place sweet potatoes on a lined baking tray, season with cumin powder, cinnamon powder, salt, pepper, and drizzle with olive oil.

4

Bake sweet potatoes in a 200°C oven for around 30 minutes until cooked and golden.

5

In a bowl, combine chipotle paste, red pepper paste, honey, lime juice, and salt to create the marinade.

6

Pour the marinade over the prawns and let them sit in the fridge to deepen flavor or cook immediately.

7

Prepare the quinoa and black bean salad by dicing red onions and jarred roasted peppers, and chopping fresh herbs like parsley and coriander.

8

Once quinoa is cooked, combine it in a large bowl with black beans, chopped herbs, diced peppers, red onions, extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper, and a squeeze of lime juice while the quinoa is warm to absorb flavors.

9

For the dressing, blend coconut yogurt, fresh coriander, jalapeno, lime juice, and salt in a mini chopper until smooth.

10

In a pan, heat olive oil and gently cook garlic for a couple of minutes.

11

Add the marinated prawns to the pan, squeeze over more lime juice, and cook for about 3 to 4 minutes until done.
