Instructions
Preheat oven to 185°C. Cut sweet potato into large wedges and toss in olive oil and season. Roast in oven for 35 minutes, then remove from oven and set aside.
Cut the turkey breast into small manageable sizes. In a food processor, add breadcrumbs, parsley, Parmesan and pepper. Blend until green in colour and consistent in texture and bread crumb size.
Using three bowls, add the flour to one together with a little salt and pepper. In the next add 2 eggs and the milk and mix until smooth. In the third bowl add the breadcrumb mix. Have a large tray ready to put your crumbed turkey onto before cooking.
To crumb, start with the turkey and add it to the bowl of flour, make sure it is covered, shake off excess and add it to the egg mix, make sure it is covered and drain off excess, finally add the turkey to the bread crumb mix, making sure it is covered well, shake off excess gently and place on tray. Repeat with all the turkey pieces.
Add olive oil to a fry pan and on medium/high cook the turkey until golden and place on a new baking tray covered with baking paper.
Place the turkey in to the oven along with the sweet potato for a further 10 minutes or until the Turkey is cooked through.
Serve the sweet potato wedges with watercress and a Lemon wedge and season with salt and pepper.
