Recipe: Leftover Turkey Stock

Who had turkey for Christmas this year? Do you have lots of leftovers from the meal and not quite sure what to do with them?

Well, waste not. You can shred the meat off the turkey and store them in individual tupperwares in the chiller or freezer. And the turkey carcass - don't throw that away either. You can use it to make a really nice and rich turkey stock, which you can use for making soups, noodles, risotto and more. From one turkey carcass, I managed to make about 4l of turkey stock. Not bad at all!

How to Make Turkey Stock

Ingredients

Leftover turkey carcass (from a 4-5kg turkey)
4 - 5l water
2 bay leaves
2 cloves garlic, crushed


1. Remove meat from the turkey and shred and store in tupperwares. 

2. Place turkey carcass, bay leaves and garlic in a large pot with water. Boil carcass with water over medium high heat for 2 to 3 hours, until stock is a rich, milky colour.

3. Allow to cool, then place stock in glass jars. The stock will keep well in the fridge for 3-4 days or in the freezer for up to a month.
