Notes

To be prepared and handled under strict hygienic conditions.

Beer that can also be used in the recipe for children as the alcohol evaporates during cooking but the aroma remains

The ingredients of the dish bring the following benefits:

Garlic: has immune-stimulating properties, promotes liver function and the elimination of waste metabolites. It also has hypocholesterolemic, lipid-lowering, antiplatelet, hypotensive and hypoglycemic properties that promote cardiac function.

Beer: increases good cholesterol levels, prevents the onset of cardiovascular disease, decreases the risk of diabetes, promotes kidney function

Turkey meat: lean white meats are selenium carriers that support the immune system and free of saturated fats that do not compromise the functionality of the liver and circulatory system

Flour: provides B vitamins (thiamine, niacin, riboflavin and folate), which are important for energy metabolism and the functioning of the nervous system.

Extra virgin olive oil: source of Vitamin E that protects the immune system from harmful fatty acids

Potatoes: rich in carotenoids and vitamin C, the antioxidant par excellence that fights free radicals and supports the immune and cardiovascular systems. Useful for the functioning of the liver for the supply of vitamins, mineral salts and antioxidants. They provide folic acid linked to the production of serotonin and therefore favorable to good mood and counteract depression

Pepper (green, pink, black, gray, white): contains piperine, a powerful antioxidant; it improves insulin sensitivity by reducing cholesterol levels and activating metabolism. Recommended for people with cardiovascular problems.

Rosemary: rich in principles favorable to kidney function (stimulate diuresis), the cardiovascular system by promoting sweating and liver function by promoting bile secretion.

Pumpkin: rich in carotenoids that promote the functionality of the immune system and mineral salts, vitamins and antioxidants that act to protect the cardiovascular system; also suitable for nephropathic patients. Useful for the functioning of the liver for the supply of vitamins, mineral salts and antioxidants. It provides folic acid linked to the production of serotonin and therefore favorable to good mood and counteract the depressed
