Happy Thanksgiving! My parents are out of town so my sister and I decided to cook a modified/less time consuming but equally delicious version of thanksgiving dinner.
On the menu:
Curried Coconut Turkey Stew
Yam Spice Cake with Cinnamon Buttercream.
This stew is the perfect Fall/winter meal jam-packed with flavour and texture. It’s mildly spicy, creamy (but without the cream), and corn and butternut squash lend a subtle sweetness. I love it with toasted pumpkin seeds and a slice of rustic bread for dipping. Enjoy!
Curried Coconut Turkey Stew
Ingredients
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 medium onion, finely chopped
2 ribs celery, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp mild Indian curry paste
1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
2 cups of turkey or chicken stock
1 can (14 oz) coconut cream or milk
3 small red potatoes (about 3/4 pound)
1/2 of a medium butternut squash, diced (or omit the potatoes and use the entire squash)
2 cups shredded cooked turkey (or chicken)
1 1/2 cups corn kernels (1-12oz can, or use frozen)
salt to taste
1/4 cup cilantro leaves, minced (optional)
Instructions
Heat oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Add onion and saute until golden brown, 5-8 minutes. Add garlic and celery and saute 2 minutes. Add curry paste and cayenne and cook 2 minutes more.
Add stock, coconut milk, potatoes, squash, and turkey. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and cook until potatoes and squash are tender (about 30 minutes). Stir in corn and cilantro. Season well with salt to taste.
