Christmas Leftovers - Turkey Curry

[AB Editor]

Good Morning All,

You'll all be glad to hear that I am nearly over my bought of disgusting sniffles/flu/vileness

And thus my appetite returns and I start thinking about food again!

It seems to be a traditional thing to make a kind of turkey-curry-leftovers-thingy on boxing day. I want to know, what is in your recipe? What to you chuck in?

Alternatives also welcome!

All the best,

Spare Ed

- Cut turkey into small pieces and season with garlic, herbs of your choice, salt and hot pepper (optional).

- Marinate for 30 minutes or more.

- Heat oil in thick-bottom pot or skillet.

- Mix curry powder with 1/4 cup of water until smooth; add to hot oil and cook 2 minutes.

- Add turkey and stir to coat in curry; cook until all water dries out; stir well.

- Add tomatoes and onion; cook for a minute; stir in 1/2 cup hot water.

- Lower heat to medium; cover and cook until meat is tender; add more water if more gravy is necessary.

You could also add a couple potatoes, peeled and cut into chunks. Will help make gravy nice and thick. Serve curry over rice or eat with bread or however you like.

Turkey and potato bake...made this at work for the homeless yesterday....
In a baking tin-layer cooked turkey,cooked onions and sliced cooked potatoes, repeat the layers. Pour over a tin of cream of chicken soup. Season well. Bake in oven. When almost done-brush melted butter over the top layer of potatoes-continue to bake until golden,

Turkey curry without fruit, Society? Never!

This recipe has apples and pineapple:

My usual way of making a turkey curry would be a variation on that recipe, replacing the pineapple with sultanas. (I usually cook 'by instinct' and just throw in what seems best, rather than actually following a recipe).

PS: Although the search facility on the BBC GoodFood website manages to bring up a few 'false links' (i.e. they don't mention turkey), this page is still a good starting point for possible alternative recipes for leftover turkey:
