Method

  1. Scrub the sweet potato and cut it, skin on, into 1.5 cm cubes. Heat the olive oil in a large heavy saucepan over medium heat. Cook the onion and capsicum for 6 minutes until softened and beginning to colour.
  2. Add the garlic, cumin, paprika and chilli powder and stir for 30 seconds. Add the tomato paste and cook for 1 minute until it darkens slightly.
  3. Add the sweet potato, canned tomatoes and water. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a steady simmer, partially cover and cook for 14–18 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato is almost tender but still holds its shape.
  4. Stir in the black beans and corn. Simmer uncovered for 8–10 minutes until the sweet potato is tender and the sauce is thick enough to mound on a spoon. Add a splash of water only if it begins catching before the potato is cooked.
  5. Stir in the lime juice, iodised salt, black pepper and half the coriander. Taste for acid and seasoning. Ladle into four bowls and top with the avocado and remaining coriander.

Estimates from the identified food records, including dated product labels where specified. “Not reported” is unknown; partial totals may be incomplete. Whole-batch amounts are not compared against one person’s daily reference. Per-serving percentages compare one serving with daily RDI/AI targets for Women 31–50 years, not upper limits. Values use foods in their recorded states; additional cooking losses are not modelled unless you select a supported method when editing ingredients.
