The kinda oriental comes from the two main flavors. Soy sauce and ginger. Other than that, it’s straight out of my head, and into the slow cooker.
Ingredients
  • Turkey mince – 900g . It would probably would work ok with pork mince, but I suspect beef mince would be, umm, off, flavor wise. Might work though.
  • 2 and a half tablespoons dark soy sauce. I’ve got these neat wee measuring cups that make that kind of measure easy. and as they’re a lot bigger, they don’t spill.
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger. kinda. I’m using ‘really lazy’ ginger. pre-chopped. 😀
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 onion, chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder.
  • 2 cups easy cook rice
  • 1ltr chicken or vegetable stock.
Instructions
  1. Fry off the mince with the ginger, garlic and chili.
  2. Once it’s at least mostly browned, add to the slow cooker along with everything else.
  3. Mix well. Cook on high for 2 hours, or low for around 4.
Notes

It’ll serve around 4 people, depending on how hungry they are. If you want to bulk it out more, try shredded cabbage, or peas.
If you’re adding a lot more bulk, I’d suggest you up the ginger and soy a little.
