Roast turkey, curry sauce and mustard

Roast turkey with curry and mustard sauce puts a spicy and fragrant twist on a classic. A simple and comforting recipe, with tender meat and a rich, creamy sauce, perfect for a family meal that's a welcome change from the everyday.

Ingredients · Servings 6 people
  • 1 turkey fillet roast
  • 2 cloves of garlic
  • 2 tbsp curry powder
  • 50 cl vin blanc sec
  • 1 chicken stock cube
  • 1 small pot of thick fresh cream
  • 2 tbsp mustard
  • a pinch of thyme
Method · 15 min
  1. Remove the roast from the refrigerator 1 hour in advance so that it comes to room temperature. In a cast-iron casserole dish, melt 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Brown the roast on all sides.
  2. Add the finely chopped garlic, curry powder, a little pepper, and the dry white wine along with the chicken stock dissolved in about 250ml of water. Cover the pot and simmer for 40 minutes.
  3. Remove the lid and take out the roast, letting the cooking juices reduce. Mix the crème fraîche with 2 tablespoons of whole-grain mustard. Add this to the cooking juices. If the juices are too thin, you can add a little cornstarch. Mix well and reheat gently.
  4. Carve the roast, remove the string and the fat. Arrange on a platter and drizzle with the sauce. Serve with plain couscous, rice, or pasta.
