Method

  1. Preheat the oven to gas 7, 220°C, fan 200°C. Tip the sweet potato into a shallow roasting tin, drizzle over 1 tbsp oil, season and toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer and roast for 30-35 mins, turning halfway through, until golden and crisp. 
  2. Mix the tuna, sweetcorn and most of the spring onions in a bowl; season well. Arrange the wedges in the centre of the tin and spoon over the tuna mix. Scatter over the cheese and bake for a further 6-8 mins until the cheese is golden and bubbling. 
  3. Whisk the remaining 1 tbsp oil, the lemon juice and some seasoning in a bowl. Add the lettuce, carrot and red onion, and toss well. Scatter the reserved spring onions over the wedges and serve with the salad.
