Method

  1. Heat the oven to gas 8, 220°C, fan 200°C. Toss the sweet potato and parsnip fries onto one large or 2 medium baking trays and drizzle with the oil. Season and spread out evenly, so there’s a little space between each fry. Roast for 25-30 mins until golden and crisp, turning everything over halfway through.
  2. Meanwhile, fry the bacon for 5 mins until crispy and golden. Drain on kitchen paper. Mash half the cheese and half the parsley with all the yogurt and some black pepper in a small bowl with a fork. Add 1 tbsp of water to loosen.
  3. When the fries are done, transfer them to a platter and top with spoonfuls of the blue cheese yogurt. Crumble over the remaining blue cheese and scatter with the crispy bacon, spring onion and red cabbage. Top with the remaining parsley to serve.
