Turkey strips in a pale sauce next to basmati rice on a light plate.

Ingredients

  • 300 g turkey breast
  • 140 g basmati rice
  • 150 ml oat drink
  • 1 tsp rapeseed oil
  • 1 tsp flour to thicken
  • 2 tbsp parsley (optional)
  • 1 pinch salt

Method

  1. Cook the basmati rice until tender according to the packet.
  2. Cut the turkey into strips and cook gently in the oil without heavy browning.
  3. Dust with the flour, stir briefly, then add the oat drink and thicken into a mild sauce.
  4. Season with parsley and a pinch of salt and serve with the rice.

Why this recipe is gentle

The turkey cooks over low heat without heavy browning, and the oat drink keeps the sauce soft and low in fat. Parsley and a pinch of salt add flavour without onion, garlic, citrus or spice.

Tips

  • Cook the turkey until just pale rather than searing it, so it stays tender and mild.
  • Cook the rice ahead so the dish comes together in just a few minutes.
  • How much you tolerate depends on fat level, portion size and your personal triggers.
