In recent months I’ve started buying turkey mince again. It’s a great meat to eat all year round and not just at Christmas. Turkey mince is a lot like chicken as a lot of flavour can be added to it. Therefore a big heaped teaspoon of mild or hot curry powder add to fried turkey mince and vegetables was delicious. Plus putting it in the oven made the meat juicy and tender. It’s a time consuming meal but the efforts are worth the results. Below is a video and recipe for you.

Oven Baked Turkey Mince Curry was so tasty. It was very easy to prepare and cook. As I mentioned earlier it was slightly time consuming but the efforts are worth the results. Plus all the ingredients in this dish are freezable. A larger amount could be cooked and frozen for another occasion. It also made yummy leftover for lunch the next day too. However you decide to eat this dish, as always, please enjoy. Thank you xxx
