Curried Turkey Soup Recipe
Crispy bacon and diced apples is the lifeline for Curried Turkey Soup. Despite the cooked turkey, the turkey stock and the curry powder, the recipe is always incomplete without diced apple. How else can a chef be more creative than mixing meat stock in buttermilk with almonds and bacon bits as topping? Sounds like a dessert, yet this Curried Turkey Soup is nothing close to a sweet dish. If you wanna go creative add on those diced apples and make your portion of soup.
