1. Cook the sweet potato Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut the sweet potatoes into small cubes. Put on a lined sheet pan. Drizzle with oil and season with the spices (to taste, spicy), salt and pepper. Bake in the oven for 20-22 minutes. To help your children get accustomed to new flavours and develop their tastebuds, thread lightly with the spices at first!
2. Cook the barley Bring a big saucepan of water to a boil. Pour in the barley and cook 20-22 minutes over medium-high heat until tender. Drain. Mix with a drizzle of oil.
3. Setup Thinly slice the cabbage. Cut the pepper into thin strips. Chop the cilantro. Cut the lime into wedges.
4. Marinate the cabbage In a bowl, combine the cabbage with 1/4 cup of cider or wine vinegar, 1 tbsp of sugar, a pinch of salt and 1/4 cup of warm water. Marinate.
5. Caramelize the pecans Heat a pan over medium-high heat. Roast the pecans for 3-4 minutes. Add the maple syrup and cook 1 minute. Remove from the pan to avoid the pecans sticking to it.
6. Plate your dish Serve the barley in a bowl and top with all the ingredients. Add lime juice to taste. Place everything in the centre of the table and let everyone serve themselves. It's fiesta night! Bon appétit!
