Right, let's be honest, pasta is definitely a big mid-week staple in the Ramsay household.

And for me, there's nothing better than a delicious hearty one.

So, this one is all about turkey, leeks, tagliatelle, finished with the most amazing sage breadcrumbs.

Trust me, it's going to be a big hit in your household.

Right, Oscar, come in, let's go through the ingredients.

Fresh tagliatelle, that takes about 90 seconds to cook.

Ground turkey is a great alternative from beef, a lot leaner.

As you can see, there's hardly any fat in there.

Beautiful baby leeks, shallots, lemon, garlic, touch of chili, breadcrumbs, and of course, fresh sage.

Right, Capitan, let's have 10 minutes on the clock.

Right, first things first, get that pasta water boiling.

And sometimes, when it's not boiling, get some salt in there, and that will increase the actual speed of that water boiling.

Now, the secret here is to get some really good color on that turkey, okay?

So, we've got to be careful, because we need some butter and olive oil in there to give it that nice, rich flavor.

And I'm going to use a couple of shallots, because leeks also come from the onion family.

And then from there, literally, just slice down.

Don't go too thin, because we want this temperature quite high.

And if the pan's super hot, the actual shallots will burn.

Now, from there, top and tail your leeks.

That basically means just take the top and the tails off, okay?

I want those leeks literally spreading through the pasta.

Top and tail, make sure they're very, very clean.

And again, on an angle, and just slice through.

As this cooks, it will sort of open up across, and all those leeks will start sort of almost shredding.

Okay, roll around, and in with the shallots and our leeks.

So, spread that out, and that helps to caramelize.

And just a touch, at this early stage, of chili.

That will give it a little bit of a lift.

Now, from there, start off with the garlic.

If you slice them too thin, again, they're going to burn.

So, keep them quite chunky, and you'll see the way that they caramelize in the pan on top of the leeks.

Sometimes, when you slice the garlic super thin, it gets very bitter.

And now, I'm going to start adding my butter, okay?

The butter's going to give it a bit of richness, okay?

Little flecks of butter, all the way down.

And more importantly, I want the water out of those leeks.

Just put it on a nice ring, and just keep it nice and hot, okay?

Once we've got that color, give that a little toss.

And now, we're going to add the turkey, okay?

And all we do is just break this up and hit it around the side of the pan.

And you'll see that we're going to get some really nice color on that turkey.

And that's why I added the butter and the olive oil, because there's no fat in this turkey, okay?

So it is semi-healthy, but we finish it with a touch of cream to bring it together to give some richness.

So open up the turkey and almost sort of run it through your fingers and just sort of sprinkle it.

And sometimes I put it in the freezer for five minutes before I use it because it helps get it really nice and crumbly, okay?

And look, you can see now I've got the leeks caramelizing underneath.

I've got the garlic and the shallots working.

And I haven't just put one big clump of ground turkey in there.

Now, from there, quick wash the hands so my vegan friends don't complain.

That's going to give it a little bit of freshness, a bit of lightness, okay?

But underneath, have a look at these leeks, okay?

And look, I'm getting that color in there now.

So don't worry about adding that olive oil and that butter.

We need that little bit of fat in there, and it stops the turkey from going dry.
