Turkey Curry

I found this recipe in a Penzeys Spices magazine. It makes a delicious curry.
What you'll need:
6 cups of leftover turkey, chopped
2 tablespoons of canola oil
2 large onions, quartered and finely sliced
1 tablespoon of sweet curry
3-4 pieces of leftover fruit such as pears, peaches or plums
1.5-2 cups of water
2 tablespoons of white vinegar
1 cup of plain yogurt, drained and mixed with a fork
1/4 cup of fresh cilantro leaves, chopped

In a large pan, heat the oil over medium heat. Add onions and cook until lightly brown, stir frequently. Add the sweet curry powder and cook another 5 minutes. While the onions are cooking cut up the fruit. Add the water, vinegar and fruit to the pan. Stir and get everything simmering, then add the turkey. Make sure the mixture never boils so the turkey stays tender. Cook for as long as possible, 30 minutes at minimum.
At the end of cooking time, add the cilantro and stir in the yogurt. Serve with rice or pasta.
