Ingredients
- 11 oz (320 g) ground turkey
- 1 lb 9 oz (720 g) potatoes
- 3.5 oz (100 g) onion
- 4 oz (120 g) red bell pepper
- 4 oz (120 g) carrot
- 3.5 oz (100 g) green peas
- 2/3 cup (150 g) crushed tomatoes
- 1/3 cup + 1 tbsp (100 ml) skim milk
- 2 1/4 tsp (11 ml) olive oil
- 1 pinch salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
How to make it, step by step
- Peel and chop the potatoes and boil them in salted water for 15 minutes, until tender; drain, mash them with the warm milk and a pinch of salt until creamy, and set aside.
- Meanwhile, chop the onion, bell pepper, and carrot and sauté them in a skillet with the oil for 5-6 minutes; add the ground turkey and brown it, breaking it up with a spoon.
- Stir in the crushed tomatoes and peas, season with salt and pepper, and simmer 6-8 minutes over medium heat, until reduced and juicy but with no loose liquid.
- Spread the turkey in a baking dish, cover with the mashed potatoes, smoothing the top with a fork, and broil 8-10 minutes at 430°F (220°C), until the potato layer is golden. Serve hot.
