So, Christmas Day is over, and you’ve got loads of turkey leftover, what are you going to do with it? Well, it’s nearly become as big of a tradition as the roast itself, it’s time for a Boxing Day turkey curry. Us Brits love a good curry, and there’s no better way to use up all your leftover turkey than with a delicious, light curry the day after a massive roast!
Like with any good curry, plain, boiled, or steamed rice makes the ideal side accompaniment. However, with it being Christmas you might have some other leftovers that you want to mix in. Also, the Chinese style curry sauce in this turkey curry recipe is delicious when poured over chips with a touch of vinegar. Chips and curry sauce, another popular British favourite.
When using your Christmas leftovers to make a new meal like a curry or casserole, you can freeze them if you want to eat the new meals a day or two later. Even if you are using turkey that was originally frozen, it is still ok to freeze turkey leftovers.
If a curry isn’t what you fancy, there are plenty of other dishes you can make with your turkey leftovers. Some examples include a casserole, turkey carcass soup, a fresh turkey salad, turkey sandwiches for the coming days and more.
