Instructions

2-serving instructions (4-serving modifications in red)

Wash produce before use

1

Cook the cauliflower “rice” and apple

  • Core and cut the apple into ½-inch pieces.
In a large frying pan over medium heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the cauliflower “rice” and apple, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring frequently, until the cauliflower and apple start to soften, 3 to 5 minutes [4 to 6 min]. Remove from the heat and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover partially to keep warm. Meanwhile, start preparing the kebabs.

2

Make the turkey kebabs

  • Zest the lemon and juice half, keeping the zest and juice separate; set aside the juice for the chutney. Cut the other half into wedges for garnish. [Zest and juice 1 lemon; cut 1 lemon into wedges.]
  • If using the chile flakes, set aside half for the chutney.
  • Cut a small corner from the ground turkey packaging and drain off any excess liquid. Transfer to a plate; pat dry with a paper towel.
In a large bowl, combine the masala blend, lemon zest, and up to half the chile flakes. Add the ground turkey, season lightly with salt and pepper, and mix until just combined. Using wet hands, form the mixture into 6 [12] ovals; thread each onto a wooden skewer.

3

Cook the kebabs

In a large frying pan over medium heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking. Add the kebabs and cook, turning once, until browned and cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate. Meanwhile, prepare the cashew chutney.

4

Make the cashew chutney

  • Finely chop the cilantro; set aside half for garnish.
In a small bowl, stir together the cashew chutney base, lemon juice, half the cilantro, and as many of the remaining chile flakes as you like. The chutney should be the consistency of pesto; if needed, stir in 1 to 2 tablespoons water to loosen it. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

Serve

Transfer the cauliflower “rice” and turkey kebabs to individual plates and garnish with the remaining cilantro. Serve with the cashew chutney and lemon wedges.
