Turkey with potatoes and cherry tomatoes Turkish style

Wash the turkey legs very well and remove any remaining skin. Place them in a suitable saucepan, cover with water and add 3 bay leaves. Cook until half-cooked.

The semi-cooked turkey meat is removed from the broth, allowed to cool, deboned and cut into large pieces.

Peel the potatoes, wash them and cut them into medium-sized pieces.

Peel the carrots, remove the stems and tops, wash and cut into medium-sized pieces. Peel the cherry tomatoes, wash and cut into quarters.

Place the turkey, potatoes and carrots in a pan. Sprinkle with the allspice, add the oil and mix everything very well so that the meat and vegetables are evenly coated in the seasoning. Add the salt and water.

Place the dish on the lowest level of a preheated oven at 220°C and bake for 20 minutes.

Then add the quartered cherry tomatoes and bake for another 20 minutes at 220°C, until the potatoes and carrots are tender and the turkey and vegetables are browned.
