• ½ tsp cumin (optional)
• 1 handful of baby spinach

Instructions

Sweet Potato Filling:

1. Heat the oil in large skillet over medium heat. Add the grated sweet potato and roast for 30 seconds. Then add the spices and stir to combine.
2. Once the pan is sizzling, add a little bit of water, then cover the pan and reduce heat to low to avoid burning the contents. Cook for about 6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3. Add baby spinach, stir to combine and cook for about further 2 minutes, until the sweet potato is tender and cooked through.
4. Stir in beans, corn, and parsley and cook for 1 minute longer, or until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
