You can also make this recipe in a slow cooker. Add the browned turkey (see step 1), 100ml of stock and the remaining ingredients – excluding the spinach, instead stir this through before serving – to your slow cooker, stir and cover. Cook for around 6 hours on low. To thicken, add a tablespoon of cornflour dissolved in a small amount of cold water 30–60 minutes before the end of cooking.

  1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a high heat and add the turkey steaks. Cook for 5 minutes, or until brown on both sides. Remove the steaks from the pan and set aside.
