Ingredients

  1. 2 tablespoons coconut oil
  2. 1 yellow onion, diced
  3. One 2-inch piece ginger, peeled and chopped
  4. 4 cloves garlic, chopped
  5. 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro stems (from 1 bunch), plus chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish
  6. Kosher salt
  7. 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  8. 2 teaspoons curry powder
  9. 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  10. 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  11. 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  12. One 28-ounce can whole tomatoes
  13. 1 1/2 cups low-sodium turkey or chicken stock
  14. 1/2 pound russet potatoes, peeled and diced into 1/3-inch cubes
  15. 3 cups cubed turkey breast
  16. 1 cup frozen peas
  17. 1/4 cup heavy cream
  18. 2 tablespoons lime juice (from 2 limes)
  19. Rice, for serving, optional

Instructions

  1. Heat a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot over medium heat. Add the coconut oil and swirl to melt and coat the base of the pot. Add the onion, ginger, garlic, cilantro stems and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the tomato paste and stir to coat the vegetables. Add the curry powder, cumin, coriander and cayenne and stir to combine and toast the spices. Add the tomatoes, stock, and potatoes to the pot. Bring the mixture up to a boil, then turn the heat down to low, cover the pot and let simmer until the potatoes are very tender, about 25 minutes.
  3. Add the turkey and peas to the pot and simmer until heated through, another 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and stir in the cream and lime juice.
  4. Ladle the curry into bowls and garnish with the chopped cilantro. Serve with rice, if desired.

Delicious. Very flavorful, great way to use leftovers. A nice curry, not hotibadded carrots to this recipe. I think next time I will add cauliflower.

Super easy to make and delicious. I used cooked chicken instead of turkey but will definitely try it with turkey next time.

Super flavorful recipe! I added a little turmeric and swapped out chickpeas for potatoes. I will make this again and again. Thanks for the inspiration Valerie Bertinelli!!
