Preparation
- Heat the butter in a saucepan and add the onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until wilted.
- Put 1 cup of the bread crumbs in a mixing bowl and add the broth. Stir. Add the cooked onion, nutmeg, parsley, egg, salt and pepper. Add turkey and blend well. Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions.
- Sprinkle remaining 1/2 cup of bread crumbs on a flat surface and roll each portion in bread crumbs.
- Flatten each portion into a round pattie about 3/4 inch thick.
- Heat about 2 tablespoons oil in 1 or 2 skillets large enough to hold the patties without crowding. Add the patties and cook about 4 minutes on each side or until nicely browned.
- Turn often as the patties cook.
- Meanwhile put the almonds in a skillet and cook, shaking the skillet and stirring, until the almonds are nicely browned. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Spoon the curry sauce over the patties and sprinkle with almonds.
