Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Combine sweet potatoes, olive oil, and cumin seeds on a roasting tray, season with salt and pepper, and toss to coat. Spread cashews onto a baking sheet.
- Roast potatoes in the preheated oven until soft and slightly colored at the edges, 30 to 45 minutes, stirring after 20 minutes.
- At the same time, toast cashews in the oven until they start to turn golden brown and become fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes. Chop when cool enough to handle.
- Meanwhile, whisk oil, vinegar, sugar, salt, and pepper for dressing in a small bowl.
- Divide feta cheese, spinach, arugula, watercress, and cilantro among 3 plates. Top with warm sweet potatoes and cashews. Pour dressing over top and serve.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Toss the sweet potato with the oil and some seasoning. Spread on a baking parchment-lined baking tray and roast for 30-35 mins until tender. Cool to room temperature.
- Whisk the dressing ingredients with a little more seasoning. Pile the potato onto a serving platter and drizzle over the dressing. Scatter over the feta and nuts, and very gently toss with your hands so you don't break up the potato.
