TURKEY BREAST CURRY KATSU

Steps:

• For the curry sauce: Add 2 tablespoons neutral oil to a large saute pan over medium-high heat and sear the turkey legs and thighs until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Remove the seared turkey pieces to a large stovetop pressure cooker and set aside. Add another 2 tablespoons oil to the same large saute pan and add the celery, carrot and onion. Cook, over medium-high heat, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the tomato paste and saute for an additional few minutes. Add the Japanese curry powder and stir to combine. Deglaze the pan with 2 cups turkey stock and 1 cup water. Carefully pour the contents of the saute pan into the pressure cooker. Add the garlic, apple and ginger and toss to combine. Add the soy sauce, remaining 2 cups turkey stock and more water as needed to come halfway up the sides of the pressure cooker.
• Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Seal the lid and bring to pressure, then cook for 45 minutes. Carefully release the pressure and remove the meat.
• Strain the cooked stock into a large measuring cup with a spout and set aside. Pick the meat from the leg and thigh and reserve. Melt the butter in the bottom of a Dutch oven and add the flour. Stir the roux base and cook for several minutes over medium-low heat until blonde in color. Whisk in the turkey stock, adding the liquid slowly to avoid lumps. Add the picked meat from the leg and thigh. Simmer to thicken the sauce and cook out the raw flour flavor, an additional 10 minutes. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
• For the rice pilaf: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat until hot, then add the onion and saute until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the rice and stir to combine. Allow the rice to toast, about 3 minutes. Carefully pour in 2 cups water and season with salt. Bring the water to a boil, then reduce to simmer and cover with a lid. Allow to cook until the water has fully absorbed, about 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let stand for 10 minutes before fluffing with fork.
• For the charred cabbage: Preheat a charcoal grill over medium-high heat.
• Place the cabbage cut-side down on the grill and allow to sear until charred, about 5 minutes. Place the charred cabbage on a work surface until cool enough to handle. Tear the cabbage apart and add to a large bowl. Add the mustard greens, olive oil and vinegar and season with salt and pepper. Carefully toss to combine and gently wilt the mustard greens. Set aside until ready to plate.
• For the katsu: Place the breast between two large pieces of plastic wrap. Use a mallet to pound the breast flat to 1/4-inch-thick all over and sprinkle both sides with salt and pepper. Fill three large casserole dishes: the first with the flour, the second with the beaten eggs and the third with the panko and nori powder. Stir to combine the panko and nori powder so that the nori is evenly distributed. Place the pounded breast in each dish to ensure even coating, starting with the flour, then eggs and ending with the breadcrumbs.
• Heat 2 inches canola oil over medium-high heat in the largest cast-iron skillet or paella pan you have until the oil begins to shimmer. Line a sheet tray with a wire rack. Fry the turkey breast until crisp and golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Remove to the wire rack. Once cool enough to handle, slice into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
• Line the bottom of a very large serving platter with the rice pilaf. Ladle a base of curry sauce over the rice, then top with the turkey katsu breast slices and finish with the charred cabbage salad.

TURKEY CURRY WITH RICE

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, mix the first 7 ingredients. Add carrots and onion; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, covered, until carrots are crisp-tender, 3-5 minutes. Add cauliflower; cook, covered, until vegetables are tender, 4-6 minutes longer., Stir in turkey and chutney; heat through. In a small bowl, mix flour and coconut milk until smooth; stir into turkey mixture. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly; cook and stir 1-2 minutes or until slightly thickened.

TURKEY CURRY BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl with your hands until well combined.
• Put into the fridge for about 10 minutes to allow the mixture to firm up a bit.
• Take out of the fridge and form into four equal sized patties.
• Fry the burgers as you would any other burger for about 5 minutes each side or until cooked through. (I do mine on my Foreman Grill brushed very lightly with some canola oil to save me having to fry them and add extra fats).
• Put on buns and top with your choice of toppings (I go simply with crisp lettuce and a bit of extra mango chutney) and serve.

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.
