Ingredients

• 3 sweet potatoes, cut into thick wedges
• 1/4 cup (60ml) extra virgin olive oil
• 1/2 cup (150g) S&W Whole Egg Mayonnaise
• 2 tbs chilli paste with soya bean oil (available from Asian food shops – substitute chilli jam)

• 1 chorizo, casing removed, thinly sliced
• 1/4 cup pumpkin seeds, toasted
