Preparation steps
Wash the sweet potato thoroughly, halve, quarter and cut into pieces. Place on a baking tray lined with baking paper and season with salt, pepper and cumin. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon of oil and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Bake in a preheated oven at 390°F for 25-30 minutes.
At the same time, cook the green beans in plenty of boiling salted water for 5-10 minutes until al dente. Drain and set aside.
