    Spiced Turkey in a Creamed Coconut Sauce


    Source of Recipe


    Kelly's Turkey

    Recipe Introduction


    A very English, easy curry to use up the last bits of the turkey.
    No need to roast and grind your own spices (we are on holiday)
    – Sharwood’s hot curry powder is the next best thing.

    List of Ingredients




    1 heaped tablespoon Sharwood’s hot curry powder
    1 teaspoon each ground ginger and turmeric
    1 lb 5 oz (600 g) cooked turkey, cut into 1-in (2.5-cm) pieces
    2 tablespoons grated creamed coconut
    1 tablespoon turkey dripping
    1 large onion, roughly chopped
    1 clove garlic, crushed
    1 medium dessert apple, cored and chopped (skin on)
    2 outside celery stalks, chopped
    1 oz (25 g) raisins
    1 heaped tablespoon plain flour
    11/4 pints (725 ml) hot stock made with Marigold Swiss vegetable bouillon powder
    salt and freshly milled black pepper

    Recipe



    To serve

    Basmati rice, poppadoms, mango chutney, lime pickle

    You will also need a 4-pint (2.25-litre) lidded flameproof casserole

    Method

    In the casserole, heat up the dripping and, when it’s hot, add the onion and fry over a medium heat till softened and caramelised at the edges (about 5–6 minutes), then add the garlic, toss this around and cook for a further minute. Next, stir in the apple, celery and raisins and soften these for about 5 minutes. After that, add the turkey pieces and stir them around to combine with the other ingredients, then add the curry powder, spices and flour and continue to stir to soak up all the juices. Now gradually stir in the stock, about one quarter of it at a time. Season, and when it comes up to simmering point, stir in the grated creamed coconut. Put a lid on and simmer very gently for 30 minutes.
