Instructions

Notes

Variations:
  • Using lamb mince or chicken mince makes a nice change.
  • Make it creamy and add a tablespoon of coconut cream or yogurt.
  • Adjust the spice level if you like things hot! Add 1 chopped fresh red chilli or two teaspoons of chili powder with the onion and garlic, and use a hot curry paste or curry powder like madras.
  • Make it vegetarian and use soy or Quorn mince.
  • Add more vegetables! Baby spinach leaves added for the last 5 minutes of cooking work really well.

Reheat: The turkey mince curry can be reheated in the microwave, or in a pan on the hob.
