Left over Turkey?

What to do with the endless supply of meat? I made Turkey Biryani. Its a traditional Indian rice dish made with chicken so easy to subsitute! I barely paid attention while making it, so its impossible for you to mess it up

Ingredients

  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 large onions, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger root
  • 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1 (2 inch) piece cinnamon stick
  • 3 pounds boneless, skinless left over turkey pieces cut into chunks
  • Frozen peas for color (IE makes it all look less beige)
  • 3 cups basmati rice
Throw the Cinnamon sticks into the rice and cook away the way you mostly do

Pour some oil into a small frying pan
on low, heat all remaining spices

when it starts to smell good put in the meat and frozen peas and warm it up

mix all the cooked rice and meat/spice mix

The rice is going to turn a nice yellow color and start eating!
