Ingredients

2 shallots, coarsely chopped

3-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and sliced

4 garlic cloves

1 tablespoon curry powder

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 3/4-inch cubes

1 package (10 ounces) frozen cut okra, thawed

1 1/2 pounds turkey cutlets, cut into 1-inch strips

Coarse salt and ground pepper

Preparation

In a blender, combine shallots, ginger, garlic, curry powder, and 1/3 cup water; blend until smooth.

Heat oil in a Dutch oven (or other 5-quart pot) over medium-high heat. Add shallot mixture; cook, stirring frequently, until starting to darken, 3 to 5 minutes. Add sweet potatoes; cook, stirring frequently, until starting to brown, 2 to 3 minutes.

Add okra and 3 cups water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to medium, and simmer until potatoes are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Stir in turkey, and cook until just opaque throughout, 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
