Ingredients

• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 onion, diced
• 3 cloves garlic, crushed
• 600g turkey mince
• 1 tbsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp smoked paprika
• 2 sweet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 2 x 400g tins chopped tomatoes
• 400ml chicken stock
• Salt and pepper, to taste

Method

1. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened.
2. Add the garlic and turkey mince, breaking it up with a spoon, and cook for 6-8 minutes until browned.
3. Stir in the cumin and smoked paprika and cook for 1 minute.
4. Add the sweet potatoes, chopped tomatoes, and stock. Stir well and bring to a simmer.
5. Reduce the heat and cook uncovered for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sweet potato is tender and the stew has thickened.
6. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
7. Cool completely before portioning into 8 airtight containers. Freezes well for up to 3 months — defrost overnight and reheat until piping hot throughout.
