This British turkey is Red Tractor-certified for quality. With a tender texture and slightly higher fat content compared to turkey breast mince, you'll enjoy a richer, more pronounced flavour in your dishes. Its versatility makes it a great alternative to beef or pork mince and it can be used to make burgers, meatballs, Bolognese sauce, or even a tasty turkey chilli.

Top Tip! Add some chopped herbs and spices to your turkey mince for extra flavour. Try mixing in some paprika, garlic, and cumin for a delicious twist.

Basil and Smoked Houmous Turkey Patties With Summer Vegetable Rice
Prep time: 15 mins
Cook time: 15 mins
Serves: 4

The houmous in this dish is made with smoked chickpeas – it adds an extra dimension of flavour to the turkey patties, which also feature lemon zest, fresh basil and worcester sauce. Using microwave rice keeps prep time to a minimum, meaning you can have this family-friendly dinner on the table within half an hour.

Ingredients:
800g turkey mince, breast or thigh
4 tbsp Moorish Smoked Houmous
100g breadcrumbs
2 bunches fresh basil, leaves roughly chopped. Plus extra leaves to serve
1 lemon, zest and juice
4 tbsp worcester sauce
2 tbsp cornflour (or plain flour)
4 tbsp olive oil
1 courgette, diced
1 red or yellow pepper, diced
2 flat mushrooms, chopped into small chunks
400 microwave pilau rice
90g rocket
2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil

Method
Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6. Place the turkey, houmous, breadcrumbs, basil, lemon zest and worcester sauce in a large bowl. Season and mix together, then form into 12 patties. Dust each one in the cornflour, tapping off the excess

Step 2
Put 2tbsp oil into a large non-stick frying pan and bring to a high heat, then add half the patties to the pan (you’ll have to cook them in two batches). Fry for 1 min on each side, then remove them to an oven tray. Repeat for the second batch, then put the patties into the oven to cook for 5 mins.

Step 3
Meanwhile, wipe the frying pan and add 2tbsp oil. Add the courgettes, pepper and mushrooms, season and cook on a medium heat for 5 mins, stirring all the time. Microwave the rice for 2 mins, according to pack instructions.

Step 4
Once the patties are cooked, remove from the oven and set aside to rest. Add the rice to the vegetables and combine well.

Step 5
Lightly dress the rocket with the extra virgin olive oil and the reserved lemon juice, to taste.

Step 6
Serve the vegetable rice with the patties, some extra basil leaves and the dressed rocket.
