This is a quick and filling recipe I like preparing during the cold season as tasty comfort food. The preparation is also suitable for preparation in larger quantities for a festive dinner, with the substitution of the frozen soffritto mix with a proper mincing of celery, onion and carrots and the addition of more varied steamed vegetables, to make it a richer preparation.
Ingredients for 4 people:
- 600g of turkey fillets
- 150g of diced bacon
- 1 glass of white wine
- Paprika or chilli powder
- Basil or rosemary leaves
- 200g of frozen soffritto mix
- 1 tablespoon of instant mash powder
- Olive oil
- Salt and pepper
Preparation:
- Gently fry the soffritto mix and the bacon in some olive oil;
- When the vegetables are soft and golden add the turkey fillets;
- After 5 minutes of cooking on each side add the white wine with the spices, salt and pepper and the chopped herbs;
- Take out the turkey fillets and add some instant mash powder to the sauce, regulate for thickness with hot water;
- Finish the cooking and serve immediately.

This sounds delicious, Enzo. The addition of instant mash powder to me but why not if you need to thicken a sauce!
I meant to say the mash powder was a new one to me!
I started mixing up liquids with the mash powder as experimentation, so for example a mixture of water and milk. Then I thought a liquid sauce could also be added to give the mash more taste. If I am preparing some mash as a side for a meat dish I now incorporate in the mash also some of the cooking sauce of the meat. Try and let me know!
