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!

Ingredients

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.

Time 40m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

3 tablespoons curry paste, from a jar
1 onion, finely chopped
450 g potatoes, cut into chunks
2 large sweet potatoes, cut into chunks (about 900g)
600 ml vegetable stock, from a cube is fine
400 ml coconut milk
175 g frozen peas
1/4 cup fresh coriander

Steps:

Heat the curry paste in a large pan and stir in the onion.
Cover and cook for 5 mins, stirring occasionally, until softened.
Add the potatoes, stock and coconut milk to the pan and bring to the boil.
Turn the heat down and simmer the curry for 20 mins until the potato has softened.
Add the peas, bring back to the boil and simmer for 2 mins more.
Season to taste
spoon the curry into bowls.
Scatter over the coriander before eating.

Tips:

Choose the right sweet potatoes: Look for firm, unblemished sweet potatoes with smooth skin. Avoid any that are soft or have bruises or cuts.
Cut the sweet potatoes evenly: This will help them cook evenly. If the pieces are too large, they will take longer to cook and may not cook through evenly.
Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the sweet potatoes, make sure to give them enough space so that they can cook evenly. If the pan is too crowded, the sweet potatoes will steam instead of roast and will not get crispy.
Use a well-seasoned pan: A well-seasoned pan will help prevent the sweet potatoes from sticking. If you don't have a well-seasoned pan, you can grease it with a little oil.
Roast the sweet potatoes until they are tender and slightly caramelized: The sweet potatoes should be tender enough to easily pierce with a fork, and they should have a slightly caramelized exterior.
Add the peas and curry sauce: Once the sweet potatoes are roasted, add the peas and curry sauce and stir to combine. Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes, or until the peas are heated through.
Serve immediately: Sweet potato and pea curry is best served immediately, while the sweet potatoes are still crispy and the curry sauce is hot.

Conclusion:

This sweet potato and pea curry is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. The curry sauce is flavorful and creamy, and the sweet potatoes and peas add a touch of sweetness and crunch. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
