Recipe tips If you want to freeze your turkey curry for another day, cool the sauce down before adding the turkey. Mix the cold leftover turkey with the cold sauce and freeze. Add the spinach on reheating. The curry will freeze for up to 3 months. You can use frozen spinach instead of baby spinach, but you will need to thaw it and squeeze out any excess moisture before adding to the curry.
