Recipe Notes
- For the best flavours, make this recipe a day ahead and store it in the fridge overnight.
- You can freeze it for up to 3 months.
- Simmer it gently, this allows the flavours to develop as it cooks.
- You can replace the turkey mince for beef or chicken mince.
- You can make this vegetarian or vegan. Omit the mince, replace with an extra can of beans and swap the stock for a vegetable version.
- You can make this for children. Substitute the hot smoked paprika for a mild one, a low sodium stock and less chipotle, depending on how spicy you want it.
