Wholesome Turkey Gratin with garlic and chilli

Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the garlic and chilli elements, and pat the turkey dry so it colours well.

Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Turn up the heat and add the turkey. Cover and cook low and slow, stirring now and then, until rich and spoonable.

Stir in the capers and the rest of the garlic and chilli flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.

Add the leek along with a splash of stock or water, then cover and cook gently until everything is tender and the sauce clings.

Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt, pepper and a little acid. It should taste bright, savoury and balanced.
