  • 185g can tuna in spring water, drained
  • ½ red onion , finely sliced
  • 1 small red chilli , deseeded and chopped
  • juice 1 lime
  • 6 tbsp Greek yogurt
  • handful coriander leaves

Method

  1. Scrub the sweet potatoes and prick all over with a fork. Place on a microwaveable plate and cook on High for 18-20 mins, or until tender. Split in half and place each one, cut-side up, on a serving plate.
