The Best Masala Turkey Recipe (courtesy of Nani-ma)

Masala Turkey is a Charaipotra tradition and it’s something we all look forward to every Thanksgiving. Sometimes the house is filled with cousins, friends, relatives, and sometimes it’s a small gathering of immediate family. One year, Sona made this for my family in California and it was a major hit. It’s super simple to make, and absolutely delicious. This year, Sona’s parents are leaving for India on Thanksgiving, so we did what anyone would do: we’re celebrating one week earlier.
Also check out the video underneath the recipe, taken on Kavya’s first taste of Thanksgiving Masala Turkey.
