Makes 4

INGREDIENTS:

3 tablespoons olive oil

1 large onion, finely chopped

4 garlic cloves, finely chopped

5cm piece of fresh ginger, peeled and grated

1 red chilli, deseeded and finely chopped

8 green cardamom pods, pods removed

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 tablespoon ground turmeric

1 teaspoon garam masala

1 tablespoon lemon juice

200g turkey, cooked and chopped

1 tablespoon chopped fresh coriander leaves

sea salt and freshly ground black pepper

method:

1. Set a large casserole over a medium heat and pour in the oil. Stir in the onion, garlic, ginger, chilli, cardamom seeds, cumin, turmeric, garam masala and ground coriander.

2. Cover and sweat for 3–4 minutes until the onions are soft; take care not to burn the spices. Stir in the potatoes and butternut squash and cook until the potato begins to stick to the bottom of the casserole slightly.

4. Stir in the yoghurt and cream, then add the lemon juice and turkey. 

5. Simmer to heat through, sprinkle with coriander and serve immediately.
