Chinese Turkey with Chillies and Basil

Ingredients:

2 tbsp ground nut oil

500g turkey fillets, cut into cunks

3 tbso fnely sliced shallots

3 tbsp chopped garlic

3 fresh red chillies, finely sliced – if you don’t like it spicy, make sure you do de-seed them

2 tbsp fish sauce

2 tsp dark soy sauce

2 tsp sugar

a large handful of fresh basil

 

Method:

Heat your wok or big frying pan until it is very hot, add one tablespoon of the oil and add the turkey chunks once the oil is piping hot. Stir-fry over a very high heat for about 8 minutes until golden brown. Transfer the turkey to a colander or sieve and let it drain.

Reheat your wok and add remaining oil before you add the shallots and garlic. Stir-fry for 3 minutes until golden brown.

Return the turkey to the wok and add the chillies, dark soy and fish sauce and sugar. Stir-fry over a very high heat for another 8 minutes or until the turkey is cooked through. Stir in the basil and serve with some boiled rice.
