• 1 tablespoon chilli powder

• 1 teaspoon ground cumin

Preheat oven to 163°C.

Remove turkey skin.

Cook onion in oil with 1/2 teaspoons salt in Dutch oven over medium heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until well softened, about 10 minutes.

Add garlic and spices and cook, stirring, 1 minute.

Stir in ketchup, vinegar, chillies, Worcestershire sauce, molasses, and 120ml water and simmer mixture, stirring, 1 minute.
