Nigel Slater’s sweet potatoes, spices and spinach recipe

Gradually, though, like a sourdough starter, it began to absorb outside “contaminators”, gathering fizz and bubbles and a load of funk, until finally it became rich, deep and splendidly distinct. The OTK crew are the equivalent of a good loaf’s life-affirming natural yeasts. Through them, my food, rooted in Jerusalem and the Middle East, has become our food, having been on all kinds of journeys, borrowing harissa from north Africa and chaat masala from India, using newly discovered chilli pastes from south-east Asia or Mexico, and adopting some cheffy techniques from our London restaurants.

The rice is built in as part of the equation from the very start, rather than merely as a serving suggestion. This means, I think, that the sweet sauce in which these aubergines are simmered is designed specifically with the rice in mind.

Serve just as it is, or with my Easy 2 Ingredient Yogurt Flatbreads.

You really could eat ths traybake as it is, it’s delicious and plenty filling enough…however if you are feeling the need for some extra carbs, you could serve this with couscous, rice or bulgar wheat.
