To make the cottage cheese, add milk to a medium pot over medium heat. Heat milk until it’s very hot, but not boiling, and small bubbles form. Turn off heat.

Step 2 of 6

Add salt and vinegar and stir once briefly. Leave mixture to stand for 10 minutes.

Step 3 of 6

Place cheesecloth or clean cloth in a strainer over a bowl. Scoop curds from milk into cheesecloth and allow to drain for 5 minutes. Transfer curds to an airtight container and refrigerate for 2 hours or until chilled. Stir through 1 tbs milk. Keep refrigerated until ready to use.

Step 4 of 6

Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan-forced. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Toss sweet potato in half of the oil. Place on prepared tray and bake for 25-30 minutes or until tender and beginning to brown.

Step 5 of 6

Meanwhile, heat remaining oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Add mince and cook, breaking up lumps with a wooden spoon, for 5 minutes or until lightly browned. Add taco seasoning and cook for 5 minutes or until well-coated.
