Perky turkey

in season

Nigel Slater dresses leftover turkey up with a sweet-and-sour marinade and a zingy citrus salad.

Ingredients

<dl id="stages"><dd> </dd><dt class="stage-title">For the salad</dt><dd> </dd></dl>

Preparation method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C/400F/Gas 6.

  2. Strip the cooked meat from the turkey, keeping the pieces as large as you can. They will stay juicier that way.

  3. Peel and crush the garlic and put it in a mixing bowl. Stir in the honey, soy sauce, chilli sauce, ketchup, mustard, turkey stock and a drizzle of vegetable oil. Season with a little black pepper, then add the turkey meat. Toss gently then tip everything into a baking dish. Bake for 20 minutes, or until the meat is glistening.

  4. Meanwhile make the salad. Peel the oranges and grapefruit with a sharp knife, then slice thinly. Toss with the watercress.

  5. To serve, pile the hot turkey onto the salad and serve.

You are going to get me in so much bother.  

 

I feel like a naughty schoolboy for encouraging you.

You have been busy, EC.

Oh, that is all Erinp's hard work. 

I can only take a little bit of credit - if that's the right word.

It's still Christmas as far as I'm concerned, until I go back to work 7 JanSmoked salmon and scrambled eggs for breakfast, home made pea and ham soup and herb scones for lunch. Haven't decided on supper yet, (either a pheasant dish or salmon en croute,) but, when my niece and her bf come back from their walk, I'm planning on hot chocolate, (made with real chocolate and frothy cream/milk,) with homemade vanilla shortbread. No wonder I'm such a fat bugga
