EVERYTHING SPICED CHALLAH TURKEY PASTILLA

Steps:

• For the challah: In a small bowl, combine yeast, sugar and water. Whisk to dissolve, then add eggs and salt and whisk again. Place yeast mixture into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook. With mixer on medium speed, gradually add flour. When dough holds together, it is ready for kneading.
• Turn dough onto a floured surface and knead until smooth. Place dough in a bowl lightly greased with vegetable oil. Cover with plastic wrap and let rise in a warm place for 45 minutes, or until almost doubled in size.
• For the turkey filling: In a medium cast-iron skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. When shimmering, add ginger and onion and saute until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. To the skillet, add turkey, pistachios, raisins, cinnamon, and chili powder. Saute until turkey is cooked through, 8 to 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
• For the everything spice: Place the onion flakes, dried garlic, salt, caraway seeds, poppy seeds and sesame seeds in a bowl; mix and set aside.
• To assemble: Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
• Turn dough onto a floured surface and roll into a rectangle approximately 1/8-inch thick. Cut into 3-inch squares. Spoon 2 tablespoons turkey filling on top of each square. Fold up the sides to form dumplings and crimp the tops. Place top-side down on a baking sheet, leaving about 2 inches between each pastilla. In a small bowl whisk egg with 1 tablespoon water. Brush pastillas with the egg wash, then sprinkle with the everything spice.
• Bake until golden brown, about 25 minutes. Cool, then dust with powdered sugar and serve.

SPICED CHAR WITH MOROCCAN CARROTS

Steps:

• Toast the almonds in a large dry skillet over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate; let cool.
• Return the skillet to medium heat. Add 2 tablespoons olive oil, then add the carrots, apricots and 3/4 cup water. Reduce the heat to medium low; cover and simmer until the carrots are just tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Uncover and add the toasted almonds, scallions, olives, honey, lemon juice and 1 teaspoon ras el hanout. Increase the heat and bring to a boil. Cook, tossing occasionally, until the liquid is reduced and the carrots are glazed, about 5 minutes. Stir in the parsley.
• Meanwhile, season the fish with the remaining 1 teaspoon ras el hanout and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat. Add the fish, skin-side down, and cook, flipping once, until just cooked through, 5 to 6 minutes; season with salt. Remove from the heat and let the fish rest 2 minutes in the hot skillet. Serve with the carrots.

TURKEY AND SPINACH CURRY

Steps:

• Heat oil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat; add onion, garlic and ginger and cook until they begin to soften, about 2 to 3 minutes. Add cumin, coriander, turmeric and cayenne and cook, stirring, until spices are fragrant, about another minute.
• Add tomatoes and their juices and coconut milk and sprinkle with salt and pepper; bring mixture to a boil and reduce heat to medium. Simmer for another 8 to 10 minutes, or until tomatoes break down.
• Add spinach and turkey to pan and continue to cook until spinach wilts and turkey is warmed through, another 3 to 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning, garnish with cilantro and serve.

SPICY CARROT AND SPINACH LATKES

Steps:

• Begin heating a large heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Heat the oven to 300 degrees and line a sheet pan with parchment. Place a rack over another sheet pan.
• In a large bowl mix together the carrots, spinach, baking powder, salt, nigella seeds, chili powder, oat bran and matzo meal or flour. Taste and adjust salt. Add the eggs and stir together. If the mixture seems dry add a little more egg.
• Pack about 3 tablespoons of the mixture into a 1/4 cup measuring cup. Reverse onto the parchment-lined baking sheet. Repeat with the remaining latke mix. You should have enough to make 15 or 16 latkes.
• Add the oil to the pan and when it is hot (hold your hand a few inches above - you should feel the heat), use a spatula to transfer one portion of the latke mixture to the pan. Press down with the spatula to flatten. Repeat with more mounds. In my 10-inch pan I can cook three or four at a time without crowding; my 12-inch pan will accommodate four or five. Cook on one side until golden brown, about three minutes. Slide the spatula underneath and flip the latkes over. Cook on the other side until golden brown, another two to three minutes. Transfer to the rack set over a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm.
• Serve hot topped with low-fat sour cream, Greek yogurt or crème fraîche, or with other toppings of your choice such as chutney or raita.
