Method

  1. Sprinkle a teaspoon cornflour onto a plate, then press the turkey steaks into the cornflour to dust them lightly. Heat the oil in a large non-stick frying pan, until it is really hot. Add the turkey and fry for 3-4 minutes, turning once until golden on both sides - cook in batches if need be. Transfer to a plate.
  2. Add the orange juice, ginger and honey to the pan. Gently bring to the boil. Mix the remaining cornflour with 1 tbsp cold water and stir into the sauce. Keep stirring on a gentle heat until thickened and syrupy, like a sweet and sour sauce. Season.
  3. Return the turkey to the pan. Add the orange and grapefruit segments and heat through gently. Scatter over chives or parsley and serve straight away with rice and broccoli.

    The sauce wasn't that great and was quite tangy. Must make sure that when the fruit is cut up into segments.. no white parts, pips etc are left in. I would recommend satsumas instead of oranges because the orange was naaaaaasty

    This is a real favourite in my family - really nice sauce if you leave out the evil, evil grapefruit!

    Very enjoyable. I didn't include any grapefruit or orange segments - just the orange juice - and the sauce was full of flavour and syrupy. A definite retry.

    "peeled and cut into segments" isn't as easy as it sounds. I had trouble getting the pith off the grapefruit, and it all got a bit messy. Tasted good, and everybody liked it. Not sure it's worth all that fiddling about with the fruit,though.

    I really liked this recipe. Honey, ginger and orange worked really well. Didn't use orange/grapefruit segments. Really tasty, will definitely make it again.

    I did not use the fruit segments. I added two tablespoons of fine cut marmalade to the other ingredients for the sauce. The result was very tasty sauce.
