Notes

Classic East African ingredients, the site where India meets Africa, match well with leftover holiday turkey to become Turkey Lentil Chili. I used ghee and turmeric to warm up the chili to just the right level of spice. Using a brined holiday turkey means you will not need much salt. Get more great recipes at CollardsAreTheOldKale.com
