Leftover roasted turkey stew
Background
This recipe is perfect for using up leftovers of your Christmas meal. If you don’t have any leftover carrots and sprouts, add them row at the beginning of the recipe, with the red pepper. Feel free to add other leftovers, such as green beans, leek, cabbage and so on. For a spicier version add some chilli flakes. Serve this leftover roasted turkey stew with rice or pasta.
