Christmas presents!
I got a lot of great presents this Christmas including: a teach yourself harmonica book (and "harp"!), a rather jazzy turquoise snood and a cup/string/stick-flicky game. Ideal gifts for someone who does not cherish the company of strangers on long bus journeys. Would you sit next to this man if there were any other seats free?
Of course not: he looks like an adult baby who makes people look at his holiday photos on the internet. Thank you very much to everyone who gave me a present; in return please accept this recipe for a traditional Yucatanean way to use up leftover turkey.
Turkey enchiladas with a trio of sauces.
i) Take leftover turkey meat and shred (vegetarians may use a turkey substitute such as tofurkey).
ii) Fill three folded tortillas with meat.
iii) Cover tortillas with a pumpkin seed sauce, a green sauce and a very shiny black sauce. Note: whilst all sauces should be shiny the black sauce should be really really shiny.
iv) Use mashed banana to create low “dividing walls” to keep the sauces separate and garnish with a hard boiled egg and a few sprigs of chaya (a local leaf somewhere between nettle and spinach). Remember, uncooked chaya contains cyanide so be sure to use only a few small sprigs.
v) Enjoy. Insofar as this is possible.
