Fried Turkey

This is a favourite recipe in our house liked by each member of my family. It is very easy to make and turkey is highly nutritious. The nutritional content of turkey is found on http://www.nebraskapoultry.org/turkey_nutrition.htm . The big Pick n' Pay stores in South Africa sell turkey goulash which is easier to cook. There is no hassle of further cutting the meat into smaller pieces. Pick n' Pay cuts it for you and charges you less for the meat than turkey drumsticks. So why not let us put them to work.


Ingredients:

  1. 1 kg turkey goulash (cut into small chunks)
  2. 1 dsp. coriander powder
  3. 1 tsp. chilli powder
  4. 1/2 tsp. pepper powder
  5. 1/2 tsp. turmeric powder
  6. 2 dsp. any chicken masala
  7. 1 dsp. ginger slices
  8. 6 garlic cloves
  9. 1/2 cup chopped onions
  10. 1/4 cup chopped fresh coconut pieces
  11. 1/2 cup oil
  12. salt to taste

Method:


  • Mix the turkey chunks with all the ingredients except the chicken masala and oil.
  • Microwave on high keeping it covered with a microwaveable cover for 15 minutes. Do not add water as turkey gives out its own water.
  • Heat the oil and put in the cooked turkey. Add the chicken masala. Let everything roast in the oil until the water is all absorbed and the turkey gives out a nice roasted smell.
  • Remove and serve hot with rice.
