Instructions

  1. • Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced.
    • Cut potato in half.
    • Place potato halves on a lined oven tray. Drizzle
    with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat.
    • Arrange cut-side down and roast until crisp and
    tender, 40-45 minutes.
  2. • Meanwhile, finely chop brown onion
    (see ingredients).
    • Thinly slice spring onion.
  3. • When the potato has 15 minutes remaining,
    heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan
    over high heat. Cook onion, stirring, until
    softened, 3-4 minutes.
    • Cook beef mince and diced bacon, breaking up
    with a spoon, until cooked through,
    5-6 minutes.
    • Add tomato paste, All-American spice blend
    and the brown sugar and cook until fragrant,
    1 minute.
    TIP: For best results, drain the oil from the pan
    before adding the tomato paste and spice blend.
  4. • Add the water. Reduce heat to medium-low
    and simmer until slightly thickened, 5 minutes.
    Season with salt and pepper.
  5. • Meanwhile, thinly slice apple.
    • In a large bowl, combine the honey, and a drizzle
    of the vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. Add
    apple and mixed salad leaves. Toss to coat.
  6. • Divide jacket potatoes between plates.
    • Top with mince, Cheddar cheese and light
    sour cream.
    • Sprinkle with spring onion and serve with
    salad. Enjoy!
