Method
- Place a saucepan over a low heat and melt the butter. Add the onions to the pan and cook for 1 min to soften.
- Add the banana, pineapple and apple to the pan and cook on a gentle heat for 5 mins, stirring as you go.
- Add the curry powder and desiccated coconut and stir to coat the fruit, then pour in the chicken stock and coconut milk and bring to the boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook on a gentle heat for 20 mins.
- Place a sieve over a bowl and pass the curry through so that you are left with a smooth sauce. Add the sauce back to a pan and heat gently. Discard the solids left in the sieve – they will have imparted enough sweetness into the dish by this point.
- Add the turkey back to the sauce and simmer until the meat is heated through. Serve immediately.
