Turkey Paprikash

Paprikash, a Hungarian dish that gets its bold color and flavor from paprika, is usually made with chicken or turkey. This is my version of a south Indian paprikash. I've added some garam masala too for extra flavour since being a south Indian, my tongue needed more flavour than that provided by paprika alone.

Ingredients

1 cup turkey cubes
Salt and pepper
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, divided
1 medium yellow onion, thinly sliced and pureed
1/4 cup tomato puree
2 tablespoons sweet or smoked paprika
1 cup water
1 tsp Garam masala
1/2 cup sour cream

Directions

Pat turkey dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon butter and cook it slightly to let the butter enter it and provide a flavour.
Reduce heat to medium, then add onion and  tomato puree, and remaining 2 tablespoons butter; cook until onion they are softened. Add paprika and cook 1 minute.
Add water and turkey and cook well. Sprinkle garam masala and stir well.  Remove from heat and stir in sour cream.  Serve hot.
