Method

  1. Heat the oven to 200°C (400°F). Brown the turkey hard in the oil in a 10-inch (25 cm) ovenproof pan and lift it out, then soften the onion, adding the garlic for the last minute.
  2. Add the passata and oregano and simmer 5 minutes, until it darkens a shade, then stir in the drained beans.
  3. Scatter the breadcrumbs over and bake uncovered 25 minutes, until the top is browned and a little crusted and the turkey reads 74°C (165°F).
  4. Stir through the dill and the lemon juice, leave 10 minutes, and spoon over the bulgur.
Chef’s tipBake it uncovered so the top browns; covered it stays a stew, and the crust is the best of it.
KeepKeeps 4 days chilled, 2 months frozen in single portions. Reheat gently on the hob with a splash of water.
SwapNo butter beans? Cannellini; softer, but the same taste.
Pack itEat it at room temperature, which is how Greeks eat it anyway.
