Recipe for 6
You Need
1/2 organic turkey breast
1/2 tsp cardamom
1/4 tsp piment
1/2 tsp cumin ( Kreuzkümmel)
1/2 tsp coriander seeds, crushed
salt, crushed black pepper
ghee or clarified butter
400 gr hummus
olive oil
2 bunches of spring onions, the green cut in small rings, the white in half rings
3 long red bell peppers, deseeded and in stripes
20 sugar peas cut in 4 junks
1 bunch of each cilantro and parsley, chopped
1 tsp harissa spice
Tahini Sauce:
3 tbsp tahini
6 tbsp full fat Greek yogurt
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 tsp salt
The turkey breast should be dried with a paper towel and cut in small stripes one finger thick and 4 cm long. Mix all the spices in a separate bowl with one tbsp of olive oil and marinate the turkey meat for at least 4 hours. Mix the meat and the spices well so the turkey marinates evenly and you get the most of the flavors.
To make the sauce put the tahini, yogurt, lemon juice and salt in a bowl and stir until fully combined. Keep in the fridge until later.
Take out your largest pan and heat the butter before you add the marinated turkey at room temperature (never cook meat directly from the fridge, it only becomes hard and chewy). Stir well until the turkey is half way done, and you can still see some raw parts, apr. 5-6 minutes on medium high. Add the white onions and the red bell peppers and stir until all is cooked another 5-6 minutes. Keep the green parts of the onions in a separate bowl on the table for everyone to add as desired.
Taste and finalize with your preferred amount of salt.
To serve spread a heaped tablespoon of humus in a circle on each plate and place the meat in the middle. First drizzle some olive il over urge humus then sprinkle with lots of fresh herbs and spoon some tahini sauce over it. Finally add some Harissa.
Best side is a fresh pita bread !
