Sunflower oil, to deep-fry
1 large sweet potato, thinly sliced
80g unsalted butter, softened
8 slices white bread
1/4 cup (40g) polenta
1 2/3 cups (200g) grated cheddar
200g leftover roast beef
2 chipotle chillies in adobo sauce, chopped, plus 1 tbs adobo sauce
1/3 cup (100g) store-bought caramelised onion
Cornichons, pickled onions and pickled green chillies, to serve

Method

1.

Half-fill a deep-fryer or a large saucepan with oil and heat to 170°C (a cube of bread will turn golden in 60 seconds when oil is hot enough). In batches, fry sweet potato slices for 1-2 minutes until golden. Remove with a slotted spoon.
2.

Drain on paper towel, then transfer to a bowl. Season, tossing to coat. Set aside.
3.

Preheat a jaffle maker. Butter one side of bread and dust with polenta. Turn half the slices and top with cheese, beef, chilli, adobo sauce and onion. Sandwich with remaining bread, polenta-side up.
4.

In batches, toast for 6 minutes or until golden. Serve with cornichons, onions, chillies and sweet potato chips.
