How to make Spiced Sweet Potato and Roasted Broccoli Toasts

Combine sweet potato, chilli (if using) orange juice, and 240ml water in a small saucepan; season with salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer until sweet potato is very soft and liquid has evaporated, 20–25 minutes. Remove from heat and mash. Let cool slightly.

DO AHEAD: Sweet potato mash can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill.

Preheat oven to 218°C. Toss broccoli and 2 tablespoons oil on a rimmed baking sheet; season with salt and pepper. Roast until tender, 15–20 minutes. Let cool, then coarsely chop.

Meanwhile, brush both sides of bread with 2 tablespoons oil total and toast on a baking sheet until golden brown, 6–8 minutes.

Toss broccoli, nuts, lemon juice, half of basil and mint, and remaining 4 tablespoons oil in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper.

Spread toasts with sweet potato, top with broccoli mixture and remaining basil and mint, and sprinkle with sea salt. Cut into pieces.
