My family loves this curry served on it's own, but I love it served over rice. If serving over rice, I suggest basmati.

GROUND TURKEY, SWEET POTATO & PEA CURRY



Ground Turkey, Sweet Potato & Pea Curry image

This recipe was somewhat inspired by Banriona's Recipe #408979, which I thought was a great Americanized twist on a classic Lebanese recipe. In the same vein, this is like a flavorful Indian curry crossed with a traditional stew. No rice or naan needed, as it's very filling. Perfect for a cold winter night!

Time 45m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons ghee or 2 tablespoons oil
2 small onions, chopped
4 serrano peppers, chopped
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon cinnamon
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground cardamom
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 tablespoons ginger, peeled & shredded
1 lb lean ground turkey
2 1/2 cups sweet potatoes, peeled & diced into bite-size pieces
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can coconut milk (I use the light kind)
1/2-1 cup water
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 tablespoon palm sugar or 1 tablespoon brown sugar
5 ounces frozen peas
1/2-1 teaspoon garam masala (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large saucepan, heat the ghee/oil over medium-high heat. Saute the onion, pepper and garlic for 3-5 minutes, or until the onion has softened.
  • Add the salt, turmeric, cinnamon, cumin, cardamom, chili powder, & ginger and combine well. Saute for 1 minute.
  • Add the ground turkey & stir well. Cook until meat is browned (about 3-5 minutes).
  • Add the sweet potato, coconut milk, 1/2 cup water, tomato paste and sugar. Stir well & bring to a boil, then lower heat & simmer for 20 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are cooked through. Add the other 1/2 cup water if too much liquid gets cooked off to your liking.
  • Add the peas and garam masala, and cook just a bit more until the peas are warm. Add salt & pepper if desired; serve.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients beforehand: Dicing the sweet potatoes, chopping the onion and garlic, and measuring out the spices before you start cooking will save you time and make the cooking process smoother.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When browning the ground turkey, make sure to do it in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan. This will help the turkey brown evenly and prevent it from steaming.
  • Use a flavorful broth: The broth you use will greatly impact the flavor of the curry, so choose one that you enjoy. Vegetable broth or chicken broth are both good options.
  • Add the coconut milk towards the end: Coconut milk can easily curdle if it is brought to a boil, so add it to the curry towards the end of the cooking process and stir gently.
  • Season to taste: Be sure to taste the curry before serving and adjust the seasoning as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or curry powder to taste.

Conclusion:

This ground turkey sweet potato pea curry is a flavorful and satisfying meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. The combination of sweet potatoes, peas, and ground turkey makes this curry a hearty and healthy meal that is sure to please everyone at the table. Serve it with rice or naan bread for a complete meal.
