Ingredients

  • 300 grams turkey mince
  • 1 red chilli
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 small red onion
  • 0.5 courgette
  • 1 yellow pepper
  • 1 head broccoli
  • 2 plum tomatoes
  • 8 cherry tomatoes
  • 150 grams pasta

Instructions

  • Heat a little olive oil in a pan and fry off the finely chopped chilli and crushed garlic. (Alternatively try an infused oil). One the flavours have infused, add the turkey mince and fry off until lightly browned. As turkey is such a lean meat if you find that it is sticking add a little water to loosen it from the bottom of the pan rather than adding more oil.
  • Next add in the chopped pepper and broccoli. When these have begun to soften add in the chopped plum tomatoes and allow the tomatoes to breakdown. Next add the cherry tomatoes to the centre of the pan and allow them to cook for 10mins until they took have burst their juices. While this is cooking place your pasta in a hot pan and cook until tender.
  • Grate in the courgette, cook for a further 10mins (adding a little water to make a thin sauce) and simmer.
