My own recipe made with minced turkey. We call it Thatch ... I have no idea where that name came from! I use Sage and Onion stuffing mix in the topping as it's the family's favourite - but you can try YOUR favourite.
Ingredients:
2 onions, chopped
1 leek, chopped
2 carrots, chopped
1 lb ground turkey
3 ounces cornflour
2 chicken stock cubes
1 pint water
salt & freshly ground black pepper
3 1/2 ounces herb stuffing mix
3 ounces light margarine spread
2 ounces low-fat cheese, grated
Directions:
1. Place veg & turkey in a flameproof casserole and cook, stirring until grains of meat are brown and separate.
2. Mix 1oz of flour into water and stir into meat & veg mix.
3. Add stock cubes.
4. Cook until thickened, then simmer gently for 10 mins (without a lid).
5. Season to taste.
6. Mix stuffing, remaining flour and low fat spread until mixed to a crumbly texture (I mash with a long pronged fork).
7. Spoon over the meat mixture.
8. Sprinkle with the grated cheese & bake 375F/190C (170C fan) for 30 - 35 mins til top is golden.
