Turkey Tandouri:
1 kg 300 grams of turkey legs
Two onions
Two red peppers
Three green peppers
Two bay leaves
One dessertspoon of salt
One dessertspoon of grounded red pepper
One dessertspoon of black pepper
Four tablespoons of olive oil
Two branches of fresh thyme

Preparation:
After washing the turkey legs, we put it in a bowl. We mix it with salt, black pepper, bay leaf, olive oil and fresh thyme and give flavor to it. We cut the onions in quarters, put them at the bottom of the pressure cooker and place turkey meat on them. Let's cut the thick parts of the turkey for easier cooking. We add half a tea glass of water and cover the pressure cooker’s lid. It gets cooked between 45 minutes and 1 hour. We uncover the lid after holding it under cold water and reducing the pressure, as I showed in the video. We take the meat on a tray covered with baking paper and put red and green pepper slices in. We roast it well in an preheated oven at 240 degrees. We take the pita breads off the oven after keeping them in for 15-20 minutes. We toast them spreading some butter, and then slice them. We put our roasted turkey tandouri over the pita breads and serve it with onion and parsley on the side. It gets even more delicious with ayran on the side.

Post script: The pressure cooker saves us time, our tandoori is served in approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes.
