Jerk Pork & Sweet Potato Traybake
🔥 Jerk Pork & Sweet Potato Traybake
For a low-effort dinner with plenty of flavour, this jerk pork and sweet potato traybake does the job beautifully. Our Jerk Seasoning gives the pork and vegetables a warm Caribbean-inspired crust while the sweet potato softens and caramelises in the roasting tin.
🥣 Ingredients
- 500g pork tenderloin or pork loin, cut into chunks
- 2 tbsp Spice & Dipity Jerk Seasoning
- 500g sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks
- 2 peppers, sliced
- 1 red onion, cut into wedges
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 lime, cut into wedges
- Fresh coriander or spring onion, to finish
🍳 Instructions
- Heat the oven to 210°C/190°C fan/Gas 6–7.
- Toss the sweet potato, peppers and onion with 1 tbsp oil and half the Jerk Seasoning. Roast for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, toss the pork with the remaining oil and Jerk Seasoning.
- Add the pork to the tray, turn everything together and roast for another 15–18 minutes until the pork is cooked and the vegetables are tender and caramelised.
- Squeeze over fresh lime and scatter with coriander or spring onion before serving.

💚 Why This Recipe Works
Sweet potato is a natural partner for jerk spices because its sweetness balances chilli and savoury warmth. Roasting everything together also means the pork juices and seasoning flavour the vegetables as they cook.
