Talking Turkey… Leftovers!

It’s turkey leftover time… And besides the ubiquitous turkey sandwich with cranberry sauce and stuffing, I love to use the carcass to make congee…. comfort food for me especially during the wonderful weather we’ve been having lately.

Im a dark meat fan so there’s usually not much of that left over but with my leftover white meat, there’s a few recipes I like to use the leftovers for one Chinese classic (Congee), one Western classic (Turkey a la King) and one from Vietnam (Curry with Lemongrass).
