A delightful and hearty curry combining ground turkey, sweet potatoes, and peas in a flavorful spiced coconut sauce.
Heat the ghee in a large saucepan over medium heat.
Ensure the ghee is fully melted and hot before adding the onions for even cooking.
Add the chopped onion and minced garlic to the saucepan and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent the garlic from burning.
Stir in the salt, turmeric, cinnamon, cumin, cardamom, chili powder, and ginger, and cook for 1 minute.
Cooking the spices briefly enhances their aroma and flavor.
Add the ground turkey and cook until browned.
Break up the turkey into small pieces as it cooks for even browning.
Add the diced sweet potatoes, coconut milk, water, tomato paste, and brown sugar. Stir well and bring to a boil.
Cut the sweet potatoes into uniform pieces for even cooking.
Reduce the heat and simmer until the sweet potatoes are tender.
Cover the saucepan partially to retain moisture while allowing the curry to thicken.
Stir in the peas and garam masala, cooking until the peas are heated through.
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
Serve the curry hot with your choice of rice or bread.
Garnish with fresh cilantro for a burst of color and flavor.
