Preheat the oven to 220°C. Wash the sweet potato and cut into wedges, then transfer to a bowl along with 1 tsp Mexican-style spices* per person. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then toss well to coat. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet and bake for 30 - 35 minutes or until golden-brown, tossing halfway (see Tip).
*Take care, this ingredient is spicy! Use as preferred.
Tip: the wedges can burn easily, therefore be sure to keep a close eye on them and lower the oven temperature if necessary.
Drain the kidney beans and transfer to a bowl along with the rest of the Mexican spices. Lightly drizzle with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then mix well to combine. Spread the kidney beans over the sweet potato wedges during the final 5 minutes of cooking time.
Drain the corn. Melt a knob of butter in a frying pan over medium-high heat and fry the corn for 2 - 3 minutes with a pinch of salt. Meanwhile, finely dice the onion. Deseed and finely chop the red chili pepper*. Crush or mince the garlic and roughly chop the coriander. Juice half of the lime and cut the other half into wedges.

Dice the tomato. In a small bowl, mix the avocado dip with the chili pepper, onion and garlic (see Tip). Add a third of the coriander and (per person) 0.5 tbsp lime juice and 0.5 tsp extra virgin olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. In another bowl, combine the tomato, white balsamic vinegar, another third of the coriander and the rest of the extra virgin olive oil. Season with salt and pepper.
Tip: if you don't like raw onion or raw garlic, add them both to the baking sheet in the following step while adding the corn.
Add the corn to the baking sheet and mix well to combine with the kidney beans and sweet potato wedges. Scatter over the cheddar, then return to the oven for another 3 - 5 minutes or until the cheddar has melted.
Serve the loaded sweet potato wedges on plates along with the guacamole, salsa and sour cream. Garnish with the rest of the coriander and lime wedges.
