Cooking method

Cooking time: 1 h 30 min

1. Wash the tubers. Do this carefully, because the yam skin contains a lot of vitamins and it's better to bake whole vegetables right with it.
2. Pierce the skin on each side in two places with a fork. This is necessary so that it does not burst during cooking.
3. If you want a juicier dish, wrap each sweet potato in foil. To get a crispy skin, you do not need to do this. It is better to cook sweet potatoes on a grill with a pallet (or put foil under vegetables), since sticky juice will be released during baking. But, if you don't have a rack with a grill, you can bake vegetables simply in any form or pan suitable for cooking in the oven.
4. Rub each sweet potato with oil from all sides, put it on the grill.
5. Put the vegetables in a cold oven. Immediately turn it on to warm up to 200 degrees Celsius.
6. Bake the sweet potatoes for 45-60 minutes. Readiness is easy to check with a knife: if it easily enters the sweet potato, it is ready. In general, you can bake sweet potatoes at a lower temperature, but then the baking time will increase. But the sweet potato will taste more tender, like from the oven. In general, it is worth focusing on your own preferences in this matter. If you are just joining the lovers of this vegetable, it's worth trying to experiment to understand what sweet potato you like to taste the most.
7. While the tubers are baking, prepare the filling. Cut the avocado into cubes, rub the cheese, chop the onion finely. Mix the avocado, cheese, onion and pre-boiled black beans. Add salt, pepper, and mix again.
8. Remove the finished sweet potatoes from the oven. Let him lie in the form for 5 minutes.
9. Cut the tubers lengthwise from above, open the skin, beat the pulp with a fork.
10. When the sweet potatoes cool down a little, put the filling, pour the chili sauce on top.

Bon appetit!
