Margeurite's Turkey à la King

Turkey leftovers given a delicious, creamy makeover.

Instructions

  1. 1

    Heat the turkey fat or butter in a saucepan, add the vegetables and cook for 5 minutes, then stir in the flour. Stir over a low heat for 2-3 minutes; then gradually blend in the milk and stock.


  2. 2

    Bring the liquid to the boil and continue stirring until a smooth sauce. Add the diced turkey, sweetcorn, cream and salt and pepper. If possible, allow the mixture to stand for a while so that the flavours blend together.


  3. 3

    Reheat gently for about 7-8 minutes. Garnish with red pepper and parsley and serve with cooked rice, pasta or new potatoes.
