SWEET POTATOES WITH STAR ANISE, GINGER, AND LIME

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. In a large bowl, combine all ingredients and toss. Arrange potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Roast for 10 minutes, then shake or flip the potatoes over. Continue roasting for 10 minutes or until tender and slightly browned. Serve warm or at room temperature. Variation: There's a nice depth of flavor that comes from roasting all of the ingredients together, but those who really love ginger and lime might enjoy this variation. Instead of adding the ginger, lime zest and juice to the olive oil mixture, toss them with the potatoes after roasting for a hotter and zestier flavor.

• When baking sheet is hot, remove from oven. Arrange sweet potatoes in a single layer on sheet. Return to oven; cook until potatoes are crisp and golden on the bottom, about 15 minutes. Turn, and continue cooking until golden all over, about 15 minutes more.
• Remove from oven; season with salt and pepper. Serve with limes and sauce.

GINGER & LIME CHICKEN WITH SWEET POTATO MASH

Steps:

• Mix half the lime zest and all the juice with the maple syrup and grated ginger. Slash each chicken breast 3-4 times with a sharp knife, then coat well with the marinade. Set aside for 10 mins. Heat the grill and line the grill tray with foil.
• Cook the sweet potatoes in salted boiling water for 10-12 mins until tender. Drain and mash well, adding the rest of the lime zest, plus some seasoning. Meanwhile, grill the chicken breasts for 10-15 mins, until cooked through and slightly caramelised.
• Heat the oil in a small frying pan. When it's really hot, add the ginger matchsticks and fry for 1 min until the ginger is crisp. Lift out the matchsticks with a slotted spoon, then stir the mash into the gingerinfused oil. Divide the mash between 2 plates, top each with a chicken breast, scatter with the crisp ginger and serve with some sugar snap peas.
