In a bowl, combine cubed wild turkey, yogurt, garam masala, turmeric, salt, pepper, chili powder, grated ginger, and grated garlic. Mix well until fully coated. Cover and marinate for at least 20 minutes.

Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add cooking oil. Sear the turkey pieces until roughly 80% cooked through, then remove from the pan and set aside.

Add a little more oil to the same pan along with the diced onion. Sauté for a few minutes until softened. Add another tablespoon each of grated ginger and grated garlic, along with 1 tablespoon of butter. Sauté for about 1 minute.

Stir in garam masala, turmeric, and chili powder. Toast the seasonings for another minute or two. Pour in the tomato sauce and heavy cream, stirring until well combined.

Add the turkey back into the sauce along with chopped cilantro and 2 tablespoons of butter. Reduce the heat and let simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the turkey is fully cooked and tender.

Serve over rice with garlic naan and enjoy!
