Quick Turkey Curry
This is a perfect recipe for leftover turkey, but it also works with cooked chicken breasts or any other kind of poultry.
The customized toppings are what makes this meal.  See below.
INGREDIENTS
2 Tbsp Butter
1.5 Cups chopped onion
2 Tbsp chopped ginger (or more)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and cubed
3 Tbsp flour
2.5 Tbsp curry powder
1.5 Tsp cumin
3 Cups chicken broth
1 Cup apple juice (or apple cider)
3/4 Cup whipping cream (or coconut milk)
1/4 Cup mango chutney
1/4 Cup chopped cilantro
1 Tbsp tomato paste
4 Cups coarsely chopped turkey
INSTRUCTIONS
Melt butter in a large pot.  
Add onion, ginger and garlic and saute 10 minutes, until onions are soft. 
Add apple, flour, curry and cumin and saute 3 minutes.  
Slowly whisk in broth. 
Add juice, cream, chutney, cilantro and tomato paste.  
Reduce heat to medium low and simmer until thick, approx. 20 minutes. 
Add turkey and stir until heated.
TOPPINGS
This curry is best served with rice, and a selection of toppings.  I like any of the following:

grated cheddar cheese
boiled egg, chopped
cashews
almonds
sour cream
coconut
