Ground Turkey Sweet Potato Pea Curry


This recipe was somewhat inspired by banriona's recipe #408979, which i thought was a great americanized twist on a classic lebanese recipe. in the same vein, this is like a flavorful indian curry crossed with a traditional stew. no rice or naan needed, as it's very filling. perfect for a cold winter night!!

Steps


In a large saucepan , heat the ghee / oil over medium-high heat.
Saute the onion , pepper and garlic for 3-5 minutes , or until the onion has softened.
Add the salt , turmeric , cinnamon , cumin , cardamom , chili powder , & ginger and combine well.
Saute for 1 minute.
Add the ground turkey & stir well.
Cook until meat is browned.
Add the sweet potato , coconut milk , 1 / 2 cup water , tomato paste and sugar.
Stir well & bring to a boil , then lower heat & simmer for 20 minutes , or until the sweet potatoes are cooked through.
Add the other 1 / 2 cup water if too much liquid gets cooked off to your liking.
Add the peas and garam masala , and cook just a bit more until the peas are warm.
Add salt & pepper if desired.
Serve.
