Charred Turkey Flatbread

This Caribbean Flatbread leans on coconut and thyme to do the heavy lifting. We char the Turkey for real depth, then bring it together in one pan.

How to cook it

Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the coconut and thyme elements, and pat the turkey dry so it colours well.

Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Turn up the heat and add the turkey. Cook over a fierce heat until well charred in patches, then finish through.

Stir in the coconut milk and the rest of the coconut and thyme flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.

Add the kale along with a splash of stock or water, then cook briskly until everything is tender and the sauce clings.

Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.

Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
