Ingredients
3-4 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 pound ground turkey
1 chopped onion
1-2 chopped fresh red chiles
Salt to taste
A 1-inch piece of peeled ginger, grated fine
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 Tbsp garam masala
1 teaspoon turmeric
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 cup water
2 large Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
2-4 Roma or other plum tomatoes, diced
1 cup fresh or frozen peas
1/2 cup chopped cilantro or parsley
Directions
Heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat in a large pot with a lid. When the oil is hot, add the ground turkey, spreading it out over the pan.
Try not to crowd the meat . Cook the meat without stirring, until it begins to brown.
Add the chopped onion and chiles. Stir and sauté for 4-5 minutes, or until the onion begins to color a bit. Sprinkle salt over everything.
Add the grated ginger and garlic, mix well and sauté for another 1-2 minutes.
Mix in the spices , water, and the potatoes. Stir to combine and cover. Turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.
When the potatoes are tender, add the diced tomatoes and peas. Mix well and cover the pot. Cook 2-3 minutes. Add salt, if needed, to taste.
Right before you serve, mix in the chopped cilantro. Serve alone or with flatbread or white rice.
