Ingredients

  • 30ml rapeseed oil
  • 2 onions, finely chopped
  • 4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
  • 400g tin of chopped tomatoes
  • 20g fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
  • 4 green chillies
  • 150g frozen peas
  • 1.5 teaspoons turmeric
  • 700g turkey mince
  • 1 teaspoon of salt (optional)
  • 1.5 teaspoon cumin powder
  • 1.5 teaspoon coriander
  • 2 teaspoons garam masala
  • Fresh coriander (to serve), finely chopped

Directions

1

Blend the chopped tomatoes, ginger and green chillies together, and set aside for later.

2

Heat the oil in a non-stick pan on medium heat and cook the chopped onions for 5 minutes or so. Once softened and beginning to brown, add the chopped garlic and cook for a further 3 minutes.

3

Add the blended tomato, ginger and chilli mix to the pan, along with the turmeric and frozen peas. Stir well and cook for a further 3 minutes.

4

Add the turkey mince to the pan along with the remaining spices. Mix well and keep cooking on a medium heat until the meat has turned white. Cover the pan, turn the heat to low and cook for another 5 minutes.

5

Remove the lid and carry on cooking for a few minutes to allow any excess water to evaporate. Once ready, top with chopped coriander. Information: Serve with chapatis or in a wrap with plain yoghurt.
