- Let the curry simmer gently for just under 5 min and finally season well with salt.
Good to know
Coconut milk and peanut butter make a thick, creamy sauce in seconds. Turkey breast soaks up the flavour beautifully.
Swaps
Peanut butter → almond butter (if peanuts don't agree with you, white almond butter is a smooth, excellent substitute; contains tree nuts).
Cooking tips
Use pure peanut butter without sugar or added palm fat. Stir it well in the jar first, as the oil often separates.
Storage
The curry thickens a lot in the fridge overnight. A splash of water makes it creamy again straight away when reheating.
