Instructions

Roast the sweet potatoes
45 minPreheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F). Wash the sweet potatoes and halve them lengthwise. Brush the cut sides with 1 tbsp of the oil and season with salt. Place cut side down on a parchment-lined baking sheet and roast for 40–45 minutes, until tender.
Roast the chickpeas
15 minDrain and dry the chickpeas, then toss with the remaining oil, paprika, cumin, and salt. Roast on the baking sheet alongside the sweet potatoes for the last 15 minutes.
Make the yogurt sauce
Mix the yogurt with the pressed garlic, lemon juice, and salt.
Fill the sweet potatoes
Lightly mash the sweet potato flesh with a fork. Top with the chickpeas, drizzle with the yogurt sauce, and sprinkle with parsley.
Tip: Roast the sweet potatoes cut side down so the flesh caramelizes against the baking sheet while staying moist inside.
