What distinguishes this summer salad are all the fresh herbs and the sumac and red pepper used to season it. You can buy these spices at Middle Eastern markets or from online retailers like Penzey's. The recipe is adapted from one in "The Little Foods of the Mediterranean," by Clifford A. Wright.

A bit of a twist on the old Irish recipe. Loaded with a few extra vegetables, this went well with a side of bread. My husband liked it, my toddler was too interested in the bread...

Categories     World Cuisine Recipes     European     UK and Ireland     Irish

Time 1h40m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 potatoes, cut into chunks
½ head cauliflower, separated into florets
2 cups chicken broth
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil
½ onion, chopped
3 carrots, shredded
1 ½ pounds ground turkey
1 ½ cups frozen peas
2 tablespoons low-sodium Worcestershire sauce

Steps:

  • Place the potatoes and cauliflower into a pot, then pour in the chicken broth. Add water to nearly cover the vegetables; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and simmer until the potatoes and cauliflower are tender, about 20 minutes. Drain the potatoes and cauliflower, but keep about 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid. Separate the cooked potatoes into a large bowl. Transfer the cauliflower into a blender or food processor along with about 1/4 cup of the cooking liquid, and pulse until the cauliflower is thoroughly pureed. Spoon the blended cauliflower into the bowl with the potatoes, and mash together until the cauliflower and potatoes form a smooth, white mixture. Season the mixture with salt and black pepper. For a softer topping, stir in a few more spoonfuls of the cooking liquid.
  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Spray a 9x12-inch baking dish with cooking spray.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and cook the onion and carrots until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes; stir in the ground turkey, and cook until the meat is no longer pink, breaking it up into small chunks as it cooks. Stir in peas and Worcestershire sauce, then cook until the meat has begun to brown, about 10 more minutes. If the filling mixture starts to look dried out, stir in a few spoonfuls of the cauliflower cooking liquid to keep it moist. Place the filling into the prepared baking dish, then smooth it out into an even layer. Top the filling with the mashed potato and cauliflower mixture, and spread with a fork, leaving little peaks and swirls in the topping.
  • Bake the pie in the preheated oven until the filling is bubbling, about 25 minutes. Turn on the oven's broiler, and broil the pie about 6 inches from the heat source until the mashed topping has browned, about 10 more minutes.

SHEPHERD'S SALAD (TURKEY)

Found this in "The BBQ Bible" and I am posting it for ZWT6. There are probably as many versions of this colorful salad as there are Turkish cooks to make it. The basic ingredients are onions, tomatoes and peppers. Here's a more elaborate version that's bursting with Anatolian freshness.

SHEPHERD'S SALAD - COBAN SALATAS(TURKEY)



Shepherd's Salad - Coban Salatas(Turkey) image

This salad might be found on a Turkish table. The salad is lovely and quite refreshing and it goes well with lamb. While it involves some chopping, it is very easy to do. Use really ripe tomatoes when you make it. You will enjoy its freshness, but try not to make more than will be eaten with your meal. This is best fresh. A simple and refreshing salad from the kitchen of One Perfect Bite.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your salad. Look for ripe tomatoes, crisp cucumbers, and tender greens.
  • Dice the vegetables into small, even pieces. This will help them to cook evenly and absorb the dressing.
  • Don't overcook the turkey. Overcooked turkey is tough and dry. Cook it just until it is cooked through, or to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Use a flavorful dressing. The dressing is what really brings the salad together. Use a dressing that is light and tangy, with a good balance of sweetness and acidity.
  • Serve the salad immediately. Shepherd's salad is best enjoyed fresh. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

Shepherd's salad is a delicious and healthy salad that is perfect for a light lunch or dinner. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own personal taste. With its fresh vegetables, lean protein, and flavorful dressing, shepherd's salad is a great way to get your daily dose of fruits and vegetables.
