One way of using up leftover turkey is this curry which, has become something of a tradition in my family and is as certain as Christmas dinner itself! It's a great way to turn your leftovers into something fresh and completely different.Turkey curry recipe.

This certainly makes me think of being in England & having curry made from the leftover Boxing Day turkey
Looks yummy! I wish I could turn some of my leftover ham into curry...
This is a tasty way to use turkey leftovers! Happy holidays!
Your fridge sounds like ours at the moment!
Think leftovers are great though, so many opportunities to create new dishes! :)
Ooh - I love a turkey curry made with the leftovers! We didn't do one this year though. We've finally got to the end of the turkey and have boiled up the carcass to make turkey soup. I'm a little bored of the bird now, I have to admit!
I've never been a big fan of curry, but while on vacation I bought some red curry paste (which was recommended as something that "non-curry lovers" would like, so am anxious to give it a try!
Curry makes everything better! Hope you're having happy holidays!
I love the idea of having traditional Christmas turkey curry with the leftovers! Looks delicious!
You can't go wrong with a turkey curry. I did a coronation turkey with the leftovers this year.
Happy New Year to you Sam, hope we get to meet up again next year!
