Orange kumara and bacon wedges with avocado dip

1kg orange kumara
3 tablespoons canola oil
4 rashers streaky bacon
1 avocado
dash tabasco
juice of 1 lime
sea salt flakes
1 spring onion, sliced

Preheat the oven to 170°C. Line a shallow baking tray with non-stick baking paper. Slice the orange kumara into wedges and place them on the tray. Drizzle the wedges with the oil and place the tray in the oven. Bake for 35 minutes, turning occasionally.

While the wedges are cooking, mash the avocado and add the tabasco, lime juice and season with salt to taste. Place the mixture in a dipping sauce bowl. Fry the bacon until it is crispy and chop roughly.

Arrange the cooked wedges on to a serving plate, top with the chopped bacon and spring onion slices to serve.

Serves 4.

TIP: Lining the tray with baking paper makes for a speedy clean up.
