Turkey Mole

by Dhruv Baker听from Spice, Layers of Flavour (Weidenfeld & Nicolson)

This is my simplified version of an exquisite mole I tasted many years ago, which is a great deal easier, but just as tasty!

Serves 6

Prep time 15 mins

Cooking time 1hr 30 mins

Ingredients

3 tbsp vegetable oil

750g turkey breast, cut into large chunks

2 large onions, chopped

3 cloves garlic, chopped

1 tbsp chilli powder

2 tsp ground cumin

2 tsp ground coriander

3 cinnamon sticks

2 tbsp malt vinegar

4 tbsp tomato puree

2 chipotle chillies, chopped or 1 tbsp chipotle paste

2L chicken stock

3 tbsp smooth peanut butter

75g dark chocolate

2 tbsp sesame seeds

Rice or flour tortillas, to serve

Guacamole to serve

Method

Preheat the oven to 180C/350F/Gas mark 4. Heat the oil in a large, ovenproof pan over a medium heat & when hot, add the turkey.听 Cook until browned all over. Remove & set aside. In the same pan, fry the onions for about 5-10 mins, until soft.听 Then add the garlic, ground spices & cinnamon sticks.听 Cook for 5 mins. Add the vinegar & tomato puree & cook for another 2-3 mins.听 Add the chipotle chillies or paste, stock, peanut butter & chocolate & stir until smooth.
