    1

    To begin making the Vegetarian Spicy Bean Chili-Stuffed Sweet Potatoes, make sure you get a thick and slightly straight sweet potatoes, without much folds. This becomes easy for you to stuff the filling. Else you can use the regular potatoes, which are evenly shaped in an oval and use them.

    2

    Preheat the oven to 180 degree Celsius for 10 minutes and keep it ready.

    3

    Cut out an aluminium foil to keep the sweet potatoes, wash the sweet potato and dry any excess water. Sprinkle salt, pepper and drizzle some olive oil over them and close it with the foil and place it in the oven at 200 degree Celsius for 30 minutes.

    While the sweet potato is being baked, we will move on to make the spicy bean chilli stuffing. Pressure cook the rajma with 2 cups of water and salt a pinch for at least 8 to 10 whistles, until it is cooked well. 

    5

    Once done allow the pressure to release naturally and keep the boiled rajma ready along with the stock.

    7

    9

    Add torn basil leaves, simmer the Chilli Bean & Zucchini stuffing for 5 minutes until the mixture thickens. Check for seasonings and adjust accordingly.

    10

    Take the sweet potato out from the oven, take it out of the foil. Scoop out the flesh from inside, keeping the skin intact. 

    11

    Chop the scooped out potato and add it to the chilli bean stuffing. 

    12
