Cooking Steps
• Set air fryer to 200°C. • Cut potato in half. Using a fork, prick holes all over potato. • Place potato on a large microwave-safe plate. Splash with water and cover with a damp paper towel. Microwave potato on high, until slightly tender, 5 minutes. • Remove paper towel, drizzle potato with olive oil and a good pinch of salt and toss to coat. • Place potato into the air fryer basket, cut-side down and cook until golden and tender, 15-20 minutes.
TIP: No air fryer? Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Prepare potatoes as above. Place potato halves on a lined oven tray. Arrange cut-side down and roast until crisp and tender, 40-45 minutes.
• Meanwhile, finely chop brown onion. • Roughly chop parsley.
• When the potato has 15 minutes remaining, heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over high heat. Cook onion, stirring, until softened, 3-4 minutes. Cook beef mince and diced bacon, breaking up with a spoon, until cooked through, 5-6 minutes. • Add tomato paste, All-American spice blend and the brown sugar, then cook until fragrant, 1 minute.
TIP: For best results, drain the oil from the pan before adding the tomato paste and spice blend.
• To pan, add the water. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until slightly thickened, 5 minutes. • Season with salt and pepper.
• Meanwhile, thinly slice apple. • In a large bowl, combine the honey and a drizzle of vinegar and olive oil. Season to taste. • Add apple and spinach & rocket mix. Toss to coat.
