With this, you will also need 400g leftover cooked turkey, shredded or cut into bite-sized pieces, one bunch of coriander, chopped, reserving a few sprigs to garnish, two limes, juiced, plus extra wedges to serve and one red chilli, finely sliced.
To make the curry paste, you must first bash the lemongrass with the back of a large flat knife to crush slightly and then roughly chop.
Once done, add this to a food processor along with the remaining ingredients and two tablespoons of the oil.
Blend this together to make a paste.
Next, add the remaining two tablespoons of oil to a pan and when hot, add the paste.
Fry over a high heat for two to three minutes and then add the sliced onion.
Continue to cook for five minutes or until softened.
After this, add the coconut milk, soy sauce and vegetables and stir together to create a sauce.
Stir in the leftover turkey and simmer for 10 minutes.
To serve the curry, stir through the chopped coriander and lime juice and garnish with the reserved coriander sprigs, lime wedges and sliced red chilli.
