A charred take on Turkey Scramble, built on sumac and onion and finished the way we like it. Ready in about 45 min and easily enough for 4 people.
Free to cook
Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the sumac and onion 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 sumac and the rest of the sumac and onion flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.
Add the carrots 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.
