3 small red onions, each cut into 6 wedges
350g Cooks' Ingredients Sweet Potato & Butternut Squash
1 tbsp Essential Olive Oil
1½ tbsp Cooks’ Ingredients Shawarma Paste
230g pack This Isn't Pork Sausages
1 tbsp lemon thyme or thyme leaves
1 small handful round lettuce leaves
4 tbsp Tzatziki
3 Greek style flatbreads, warmed

Turn the air fryer to 180ºC and insert the grate in the cooking bowl. Toss the onions, sweet potato and squash with the oil in a bowl. Season, tip into the air fryer and cook for 5 minutes. Stir the vegetables and cook for a further 5 minutes, stirring again halfway through. Meanwhile, put a little water in the kettle on to boil.
Combine the shawarma paste with 1 tbsp just-boiled water in a small bowl. Add the sausages to the air fryer, pour over the shawarma mixture and add the thyme leaves. Carefully stir to mix through and continue to cook for a further 15 minutes, stirring halfway. The sausages and vegetables should be golden brown and tender by this point. If they don’t look caramelised, cook for a further 5 minutes. Serve the sausage mixture with the lettuce leaves, tzatziki and warmed flatbreads.
