Lovely rich and warming dish for Autumn or Halloween Night. Turkey is one of the healthiest  meats, but you can substitute for chicken if it’s easier for you.

Serves: 4-5
Preparation Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 50 minutes

 

INGREDIENTS:

1 lb turkey meat, diced
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 white onions, sliced into rings and halved
2 apples, peeled, cored and chopped into dice
1 red and 1 green pepper, deseeded and sliced into strips
8 oz can chopped tomatoes
1 cup of chicken stock
1 tbsp curry paste
1 tbsp mild chilli powder
1 tsp sugar to lightly sweeten

 

METHOD:

In a very large pan, sauté the pieces of turkey in the oil until lightly browned. Push to one side and add onion, peppers and apples to soften. When softened, push the turkey back and mix with the other ingredients.

Add curry paste, chilli powder and sugar to sweeten. Add chicken stock and can of tomatoes. Mix well.

Bring to the boil and then turn down to a simmer. Cook for 30 minutes on low heat.

Add any seasoning you require to adjust the taste.

Serve with rice, mashed potatoes or flatbreads. Whatever you want!

 

TIPS:

Use up any leftover chicken or turkey (particularly after Thanksgiving!) This dish will only take 15-20 minutes using your leftovers.
