Ingredients
-
600g boneless turkey meat
-
200g ground almonds
-
2 tbsp butter or ghee
-
2 onions, sliced
-
1 sweet pepper, deseeded and chopped
-
1 tablespoon lemon juice
-
2 tsp cumin
-
1/2 tsp cinnamon
-
1 tsp cayenne pepper
-
1 tablespoon minced ginger
-
2 tsp paprika
-
2 garlic cloves, crushed
-
Salt to taste
-
150ml single cream
-
300ml natural yoghurt
-
30ml tomato puree
-
Handful of coriander
Directions
To make the marinade, mix together all spices, natural yoghurt and tomato puree and coat the uncooked turkey in the marinade. Cover and leave in the fridge overnight, if possible.
Thread the turkey onto skewers, leaving gaps to ensure the meat cooks evenly. Grill under a medium heat, turning regularly until cooked through.
Heat the butter or ghee in a large frying pan and cook the onions and garlic until soft and translucent. Add the pepper and fry until softened.
Add the lemon juice before adding 100ml of water and the single cream.
Add in the cooked turkey and ground almonds and cook for a further 5-6 minutes.
Serve with fresh coriander and your choice of basmati rice, poppadoms, flatbreads and mango chutney.
