Quick charred spring onion and sweet potato salad

Method

1. Put the whole sweet potatoes in a large pan of salted boiling water and cook for about 20 minutes until tender but still firm. Drain, slice into 1cm discs and put in a bowl with 1 tbsp olive oil and the 1 tbsp za’atar. Turn gently to coat.
2. Put a griddle pan over a high heat until smoking. Brush the spring onions with olive oil, then griddle for 1-2 minutes on each side until soft and marked with char lines. Set aside in a large salad bowl.
3. Put the cooked sweet potato slices in the griddle pan and fry for 2-3 minutes on each side until char lines appear (you might need to do this in batches). Add the charred sweet potatoes to the bowl with the spring onions.
4. To make the dressing, mix 2 tbsp olive oil with the garlic, cider vinegar and ½ tbsp za’atar. Add the lamb’s lettuce, feta and toasted pumpkin seeds to the griddled veg, then toss together with the dressing.
