  • Half a sausage
  • 1 onions
  • 4 min Babybel Light cheese bites

Chop up the leeks into a bowl. Spread tin foil over a baking tray and sprinkle it with spices.

Spiced baking tray

Put the turkey pieces in and cover them with some more spice.

Throw the leek over the meat and cover up everything with the foil – you might want to punch a few holes with a knife so it is not sealed tight. Put the baking tray into the oven at 180°C for 30 minutes. In the mean time frie up the onion and sausage.

After 30 minutes open the foil and put the fried onion and sausage on top.

Without sealing the foil put it back into the over for about 20 minutes. In the meantime you can slice the cheese bites into thin slices.

Once the 20 minutes is up turn the meat up-side down and lay out the cheese. Put back into the over for about 15 minutes on a grill setting.

Enjoy!

Notes:

- I use Polish sausages for this kind of frying – the standard English stuff has very different texture

- for an even less fatty option omit the sausage altogether – I like it for the extra flavour it gives though it’s not 100% diet friendly

- cheese is optional too (I used a low fat option here)
