recipe

  • Step 1
    Preheat the oven to 220°C. Wash, peel, and chop the carrots in half lengthways.
  • Step 2
    Put them in an ovenproof dish*, with a bit of olive oil, salt and pepper. Bake for 20-25 minutes. *Check out our tips for this step
  • Step 3
    Roughly chop the turkey.
  • Step 4
    Mix it in a bowl with the egg, garam masala, breadcrumbs, juice from half of the lemon, some lemon zest, and salt and pepper.
  • Step 5
    Add some olive oil to a frying pan on medium heat. Drop small balls of the turkey meat mixture into the frying pan, and flatten them with a fork.
  • Step 6
    Cook for 4 minutes on each side, until golden brown.
  • Step 7
    While the turkey cooks, make the yogurt sauce by mixing the yogurt, lemon juice (from the other 1/2 of the lemon), salt, and pepper.
  • Step 8
    When the turkey is done, add a tablespoon of water per person, mix the pieces around while the water evaporates, and set aside.
  • Step 9
    Remove the carrots from the oven. They should be tender at the center (you can test this with a knife or a toothpick). If they're still pretty hard, cook a few minutes longer.
  • Step 10
    Spread some yogurt sauce on a plate, place the carrots on top, then the turkey pieces, and top with arugula. (Optional: Grate some lemon zest)
  • Step 11
    Add a drizzle of olive oil. Serve and enjoy!

Recipe tip

Steam your carrots before roasting, for more tender veg.
