The yuzu’s Japanese origin inspired me to make a Japanese-style dish that’s – in true Sorted spirit – quick and easy to whip up, and quite surprising in flavour: baked sweet potatoes, smothered in miso butter, which is spiked with tart yuzu juice and sprinkled with black sesame seeds and nori strips. Totally yum, and ready in 30mins! Dinner sorted! —Anne's Kitchen
