TURKEY CURRY PATTIES

Steps:

• First, make the pastry. Combine the flour, spices, sugar and 1 tsp salt. Rub in the butter and shortening with your fingers until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs. Whisk 1 egg and the vinegar together, then tip into the flour mixture. Bring together into a dough using your hands, adding 3-6 tbsp water if needed until just pliable. Knead for 3-5 mins, then cover and chill for 30 mins. Remove from the fridge 30 mins before you're ready to use.
• Meanwhile, heat the oil in a pan and fry the onion over a medium heat for 10 mins until softened. Add the tomato, thyme, garlic, chilli, if using, and ginger. Fry for a further 3 mins. Mix all the spices with a few tablespoons of water, then add to the pan. Fry for another 5 mins until the water evaporates and the spices are fragrant.
• Add the turkey and fry for 5 mins. Pour in the stock, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10-15 mins until most of the liquid has reduced. Remove from the heat and leave to cool completely. Chill until ready to use. Will keep chilled for up to 24 hrs.
• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 6. Roll the chilled pastry out on a floured surface or sheet of baking parchment (this helps prevent the turmeric from staining the surface) to a 4mm thickness. If it starts to crack, press small pieces of the pastry into the gaps to fill. Using a 15cm-diameter bowl as a template, cut out as many circles of pastry as you can, then re-roll the offcuts and repeat until all the pastry has been used. You should end up with about 10 circles. Transfer to a baking tray lined with baking parchment.
• Working with one pastry circle at a time, spoon 2 tbsp of the turkey curry filling onto one side of the circle, leaving a 2cm border. Beat the remaining egg with the milk and brush onto the border. Fold one half of the pastry over the other to form a semicircle and enclose the filling. Press the edges together, seal with a fork and prick the top all over.
• Bake for 20-25 mins, or until the pastry is firm. Leave to cool slightly and serve. After cooling completely, will keep in the freezer for up to three months.

TURKEY CURRY

Steps:

• Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the coconut oil and swirl to melt and coat the base of the pot. Add the onion, ginger, garlic, cilantro stems and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
• Add the tomato paste and stir to coat the vegetables. Add the curry powder, cumin, coriander and cayenne and stir to combine and toast the spices. Add the tomatoes, stock, and potatoes to the pot. Bring the mixture up to a boil, then turn the heat down to low, cover the pot and let simmer until the potatoes are very tender, about 25 minutes.
• Add the turkey and peas to the pot and simmer until heated through, another 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the cream and lime juice.
• Ladle the curry into bowls and garnish with the chopped cilantro. Serve with rice, if desired.

TURKEY PAUPIETTES WITH CHESTNUTS AND BRUSSELS SPROUTS

Steps:

• Pound the escalopes between 2 pieces of plastic wrap until very thin. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside. Melt the butter in a saute pan and gently fry the onion. Meanwhile, combine the ground pork, bread crumbs, parsley, and sage in a bowl and when the onion is soft, add it. Season the mixture well with salt and pepper. Fry a tiny piece of the mixture and taste to check the seasonings. Adjust as necessary. Divide the mixture among the escalopes. Wrap them into bundles and tie each one with 3 strings to secure. Wrap the bundles in plastic wrap and twist to shape into rounds, then remove the plastic.
• Fry the lardons, and remove to a plate, leaving the fat behind. Now brown the turkey bundles well on all sides. Deglaze the pan with the Cognac and reduce to about 1 tablespoon. Add the stock, cooked bacon, and blanched Brussels sprouts. Cover, and simmer until tender, about 15 minutes. Add the chestnuts, turning the paupiettes over as you do so, and continue cooking, 5 to 7 minutes. Stick a metal skewer in and touch it to your lip to make sure the centre is completely cooked. The skewer should be very hot. Cook's Note: Serve with a squash or pumpkin puree.

PAUPIETTES OF TURKEY WITH CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Slice the turkey breast, lengthwise, into 4 roughly equal scaloppines. Place them between sheets of plastic wrap and pound them until they are as thin as possible without breaking.
• In a saute pan heat 2 tablespoons of oil and 2 tablespoons of butter over medium-high flame and cook the apples and onion for 5 minutes. Add the coriander and parsley and cook 3 more minutes.
• Place 2 tablespoons of the stuffing on each turkey scaloppine. Fold up the filets as if you were wrapping a package, overlapping the edges. Tie them with kitchen thread.
• In a wide, deep saucepan or casserole, heat remaining butter and oil over high heat. Sear the meat on all sides. Remove meat, lower flame to medium and add carrots, celery and onion. Saute vegetables until light brown but not burned. Pour in chicken stock and wine and deglaze the pan, scraping up particles with a wooden spoon.
• Add the meat, bring to boil, reduce to simmer and cook, covered, for 25 minutes.
• Remove meat from pan, cut off thread. Reduce cooking liquid by half. Strain and return to heat. Add cream and curry and reduce by two-thirds while stirring constantly. Adjust seasoning if desired. Pour over meat.

TURKEY & PARSNIP CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a saucepan, add the onions and fry gently for 10 minutes until they are softened and lightly coloured. Add the parsnips and stir well.
• To make the curry, stir in the curry paste, then add the tomatoes with a little salt, and stir well. Add 1½ canfuls of water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes, until the parsnips are just tender.
• To finish, stir in the turkey chunks, cover the pan again and simmer for a further 5 minutes until the turkey is heated through. Remove from the heat. (The curry can now be cooled and frozen for up to 2 months.) Lightly swirl in the yogurt and serve with basmati rice.

PERFECT PANCETTA & ROAST SHALLOT-STUFFED TURKEY

Steps:

• Up to two days ahead, season the bird all over with flaky sea salt - inside and out and under the skin. Leave the turkey in the tin, breast-side up, and put in the fridge for up to two days; the longer you salt it, the more succulent it will be. Weigh the turkey and calculate the cooking time by allowing 40 mins per kg for the first 4kg, then 45 mins for every additional kg. As a guide, a turkey of this size should take 3½-4 hrs plus 30-45 mins resting.
• To make the butter, mash the garlic with the thyme, lemon zest and a pinch of salt using a pestle and mortar, then beat in the butter until well mixed. Can be prepared up to two days ahead and chilled.
• Gently push your fingers under the skin of the turkey, starting from the neck, until you can push your whole hand down the length of the breast - take care not to tear the skin. Spread the butter under the skin so that it covers the breast meat, reserving 1 tbsp butter for the shallots. Lay the pancetta (or bacon) on your work surface in two rectangles of six overlapping slices. Carefully push each rectangle under the skin to cover and protect each breast. This can be done the night before; take the turkey out of the fridge 1 hr before roasting to bring it back to room temperature.
• On the day, heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Tip the whole shallots into a bowl with the thyme, bay and remaining 1 tbsp butter, then season and toss to coat. Lift the turkey into a roasting tin, massage the olive oil into the skin and season well if you haven't already seasoned ahead. Tip the shallots into the roasting tin, around the turkey, and stuff the lemon halves into the cavity. Cover the tin loosely with foil and roast for the calculated cooking time.
• For the final 30 mins, remove the foil and pour off all of the cooking juices (reserve them for the gravy). Spoon the shallots into the cavity and increase the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Roast for the final 30 mins until the turkey is golden and the thigh juices run clear when pierced with a skewer, or until a digital cooking thermometer reads over 70C. Leave the turkey to rest on a warm platter covered with foil - it will stay warm for about 1 hr. If you want to make turkey gravy, pour the fat off the juices and add the gravy to the roasting tin. Bring to the boil, then pour into a gravy jug. To serve, bring the whole turkey to the table, along with the herbs, if using. Carve onto a hot platter with a little of the hot gravy poured over. Any leftover meat can be frozen in the gravy, or used in leftovers.

TURKEY WRAPS WITH CURRY-CHUTNEY MAYONNAISE AND PEANUTS

Steps:

• Mix mayonnaise, chutney, and curry powder in small bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Spread 2 tablespoons curry-chutney mayonnaise in 2-inch-wide strip down center of 1 tortilla. Top with 1/2 cup turkey, 1/4 cup cilantro, 1 1/2 tablespoons peanuts, and 1/3 cup coleslaw mix. Fold sides of tortilla over ends of filling, then roll up burrito-style, enclosing filling completely. Repeat with remaining ingredients. Cut each turkey wrap in half on diagonal.

ROAST TURKEY WITH CITRUS BUTTER

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Pat the turkey dry all over with kitchen paper. Now weigh the bird and calculate the cooking time at 40 mins per kg.
• Mix the butter with the zests and herbs, and season well. Gently push your fingers under the turkey's skin, starting from the neck end of the bird, easing the skin away from the flesh over both the breasts and the tops of the drumsticks. Spread the butter under the skin, pushing it in as far as you can, then smooth the skin back into place. Halve the lemon and orange and put in the turkey cavity along with 2 onion halves and the bay leaves.
• Rub turkey all over with oil and sprinkle with salt. Arrange remaining onions in the bottom of a large roasting tin to act as a trivet for the bird. Sit the turkey on top and completely cover both bird and tin with foil to make a tent. Roast according to your calculated cooking times.
• Thirty mins before the end of the cooking time, take out the turkey and turn up the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Remove the foil and return to the oven for a further 30 mins until golden.
• To test whether your turkey is cooked, pierce the fattest part of the thigh with a skewer - the juices that run out should be clear and not pink. Keep cooking if the juices are pink and re-check at 10-min intervals. If you like your turkey meat almost falling off the bone, then wiggle the leg - it should give slightly if the meat is ready. Keep cooking and basting until it does.
• Rest the turkey, covered loosely with foil, for at least 30 mins and up to 1 hr before serving. Strain and reserve the cooking juices and keep the onions in the tin for making gravy.

TURKEY PATTIES WITH CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat the butter in a saucepan and add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted.
• Put 1 cup of the bread crumbs in a mixing bowl and add the broth. Stir. Add the cooked onion, nutmeg, parsley, egg, salt and pepper. Add turkey and blend well. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions.
• Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of bread crumbs on a flat surface and roll each portion in bread crumbs.
• Flatten each portion into a round pattie about 3/4 inch thick.
• Heat about 2 tablespoons oil in 1 or 2 skillets large enough to hold the patties without crowding. Add the patties and cook about 4 minutes on each side or until nicely browned.
• Turn often as the patties cook.
• Meanwhile put the almonds in a skillet and cook, shaking the skillet and stirring, until the almonds are nicely browned. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Spoon the curry sauce over the patties and sprinkle with almonds.

TURKEY WITH CURRIED PEANUT SAUCE

Steps:

• Rinse turkey; pat dry with paper towels. Spray an unheated large skillet with nonstick coating. Preheat over medium heat. Add turkey; cook for 6 to 8 minutes or until tender and no longer pink, turning once. Transfer turkey to a serving plate; cover and keep warm.
• In a small mixing bowl stir together the peanut butter, apricot spread, and curry powder. Stir in milk. Pour mixture into skillet; heat to boiling. Pour over turkey steaks. If desired, garnish with snipped chives.

PAUPIETTES OF TURKEY, SWEETBREADS AND MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and the vegetable oil in a heavy 2- to 3-quart saucepan or heat-proof casserole. Add half the shallots, and cook over medium heat until lightly browned. Add the paupiettes, and briefly brown them on both sides.
• Add the wine and stock to the saucepan, cover and cook over medium-low heat for about 35 minutes, or until the juices run clear and an instant-read thermometer registers 150 degrees when inserted into the center. Remove the paupiettes from the pan.
• While the paupiettes are cooking, heat the remaining butter in a skillet. Add the mushrooms and remaining shallots, and cook over high heat until the mushrooms are lightly browned. Stir in the Cognac, scrape the pan, and set aside.
• When the paupiettes have been removed from the pan, stir in the contents of the skillet. Cook briefly, until the sauce is lightly thickened. If desired, the cream can be added at this point and the sauce cooked for a few minutes longer. Season with salt and pepper.
• Return the paupiettes to the pan briefly to reheat them, basting with the sauce, then serve, sprinkled with the chervil.
