In my family, we like pumpkin in savory and spicy dishes. This one is fragrant and spicy. Add more chili if you like it hot.

Pumpkin and turkey were 2 different things that never cross my mind to mix them together to make a curry dish, something new worth trying, thanks for sharing @cecicastor!

howdy there cecicastor! what in the world? pumpkin in turkey curry? I guess I've never had that combination, what nationality is that dish? lol.

My mom started cooking this and I just continued the tradition. It probably originated in India. They use a lot of curries. My mom was of English descent and her ancestors were with the British colonial army when India was a colony of England. They would have brought the recipes back with them.

I like the taste of habaneros, just not as much as hubby did. If I eat a quarter of one I am doing well. He would eat two or three whole! LOL

Great recipe. I wouldn’t use coconut cream, isn’t that sweet? Too sweet for my taste.
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Here we can buy two different types of coconut cream. One is sweetened the other isn't. If you find it too sweet, just leave the cream out and add more spice.

Totaly in love with this recipe and i most definitely will try this out.
Its hard to find ground Turkey here in the Philippines, so maybe i will use beef! And also substitute the chicken stop with that of beef?
Or just use finely chopped chicken.
Either way i am excited. Thanks for sharing.

You can use finely chopped chicken. It tastes just as good. A friend has made it with ground pork and says it was really good. Let me know how you like it.

This recipe looks amazing! And I bet is tastes amazing too. Is it possible to avoid using cream? I'm not much into butter or any cream, maybe cause in Italian cuisine there is not much use of it @cecicastor

The coconut cream just adds coconut flavor. It is not the same as a dairy cream which I can not eat. My family eats the butter. I often substitute coconut oil or avocado oil in my cooking.

oemgeee i was looking for a recipe like this! i have a lot of pumpkin puree left from last year frozen. how many cups would you say the small pumpkin produces? thank you for this!
im going to use tofu instead of turkey
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Tofu works well if you toss in cornstarch first and fry it with some spices. Otherwise it is soggy. About two cups of frozen pumpkin should work out okay.
