Hilda’s Turkey Hash
1 pound diced cooked turkey meat
(white & dark)
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons butter
2 medium onions, diced
Salt to taste, pepper too
1 red sweet pepper, diced
(A dash of corn liquor, optional)
1 full boiled potato, diced
In a heavy skillet, put your butter. Sauté your onions & red pepper. Add your turkey, once your onions are transparent. When the turkey’s sizzling, add your potato. Stir. If consistency is not to your liking, add the cornstarch to thicken, the corn liquor to thin. Test to see how much salt & pepper you want. & don’t forget your cayenne.
From Ntozake Shange’s novel Sassafrass, Cypress & Indigo.
