Butter Turkey doesn't sound right. It sounds like turkey and butter. Everyone knows the famous Indian dish; Butter Chicken and they know it's not just butter and chicken, but...well. So I had a turkey breast and I wanted to try this recipe. Of course if you want to use chicken, go ahead.
This is delicious and will feed probably about 4 people.
(note; this is waaaaay better the next day)
2/3 c low fat or fat free plain yogurt
1/2 c. ground almonds
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
3 bay leaves, crushed
1/4 tsp ground cloves
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp garam masala
4 green cardamom pods
1 tsp fresh ginger pulp
2 cloves of garlic, minced
(please don't think I actually measure the spices)
1 kg. boneless skinless turkey breast, cut in bite sized pieces
Stir all together in a glass bowl and let it hang out in the fridge for a couple of hours.
Add 2 cups canned tomatoes to the bowl of turkey and other stuff.
1 tsp butter
1 tsp canola oil
1 onion, diced
Saute the onion in the butter and oil until the onions are clear, then add the turkey mixture and let it simmer about 10 minutes or until the turkey is cooked.
Add 4 Tbsp half & half cream and a handful of chopped cilantro and give it a good stir.
Garnish with more chopped cilantro and over some basmati rice.
