Veggie bake with bacon crumb

Serves 4

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cooking Time 40 minutes

Ingredients

1 small butternut, peeled and sliced, cut into 1⁄2 cm-thick pieces
3–4 sweet potatoes, cut into 1⁄2 cm-thick pieces
2–3 cups sour cream
2–3 garlic cloves, crushed
Fresh thyme, a few springs
200 g streaky bacon, grilled until crispy, finely choped
40 g Woolworths crispy onion sprinkle
50 g breadcrumbs

Method

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Peel and slice the butternut and sweet potatoes into 1⁄2 cm-thick pieces. Arrange snugly in an ovenproof dish, pour over the sour cream, season to taste and sprinkle over garlic and a few sprigs fresh thyme. Bake for 25 minutes.
At the same time, grill the streaky bacon until crispy. Finely chop the bacon, mix with Woolworths crispy onion sprinkle and breadcrumbs, then sprinkle over the vegetables and bake for a further 10–15 minutes until golden and tender.

Cook's note: Serve with chicken schnitzel and asparagus tips glazed in melted butter with a squeeze of lemon juice. You can also swap the butternut and sweet potato for baby marrow and brinjal if you prefer.
