GROUND TURKEY KHEEMA WITH FORBIDDEN RICE

Steps:

• Melt butter in a large saute pan over medium heat. Add onion and cook until translucent, about 8 minutes. Add garlic and ginger; cook for 2 minutes more. Add turkey; cook and stir until browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Season with salt, pepper, coriander, cumin, ground chile, turmeric, masala, and cinnamon. Stir well.
• Add potato, peas, tomato sauce, water, and bay leaf. Reduce heat to low and cover. Simmer until potato is tender, 20 to 25 minutes. Add bell pepper and cilantro; simmer until heated through, 5 to 10 minutes more.
• Meanwhile, heat olive oil in a separate pan over medium-high heat. Saute rice in the hot oil for 2 to 3 minutes. Add water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until rice is tender, 20 to 40 minutes. Drain off excess water. Add cinnamon, cloves, salt, and pepper.

CLASSIC TURKEY AND RICE SOUP

• Combine turkey carcass, halved onion, roughly chopped carrot, roughly chopped celery, halved garlic head, 1 teaspoon rosemary, thyme, bay leaves, salt, and pepper in a stockpot; pour in enough water to cover. Bring mixture to a boil, cover pot, reduce heat, and simmer until flavors have blended, about 1 hour.
• Remove turkey carcass and pull remaining meat from bones; reserve meat and discard carcass. Remove vegetables and bay leaves from stock using a slotted spoon and discard.
• Stir diced onions, diced carrots, diced celery, minced garlic, poultry seasoning, 1 teaspoon rosemary, and onion powder into stock; bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover pot, and simmer until vegetables are very tender, 20 to 30 minutes. Add cooked rice and turkey meat to soup; season with salt and pepper. Cook until rice and turkey meat are warmed, about 5 minutes.

GARLIC BROTH WITH BASMATI RICE, TURKEY AND SQUASH

Steps:

• Combine water, garlic, salt, bay leaf and thyme in a soup pot or saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and simmer 30 minutes. Taste and adjust salt. If you want a stronger flavor, simmer for another 5 to 10 minutes.
• Using a skimmer or a slotted spoon, remove garlic, bay leaf and thyme sprigs from broth. Bring back to a simmer and add rice and winter squash if using (but not the zucchini). Cover and simmer 10 minutes, or until rice and squash are tender.
• If using zucchini, add when rice is tender and simmer another 5 to 10 minutes, until soft but still bright. Stir in parsley and turkey and heat through. Taste, salt and pepper if desired, and serve.
