For the last few years, Drew Barryome, in addition to appearing in various films, has been working on her own TV show, where she talks about human interest stories, has celebrity guests and also has a section focusing on recipes. In fact, the actress is closely linked to the world of gastronomy. A couple of years ago she published the book Rebel Homemaker, a combination of cookbook and memoir in which the actress shows how to enjoy cooking. Together with chef Pilar Valdes, Drew included 36 unique recipes.

As if that wasn’t enough, Barrymore has also launched a glamorous line of cookware called Beautiful, on sale at Walmart, where you can buy, for example, a very cool slow cooker for around €45. The actress has launched a cooking challenge using her own kitchenware. She has proposed 5 recipes for 5 people for less than 50 €. This recipe for Minced Turkey Chilli, shown below, has caused a sensation among her fans. The total price for 6 people is less than 20 €. Here is the full recipe so you can make it at home.

Ingredients:

  • 1 kg turkey, minced
  • 2 tablespoons cooking oil
  • 2 chopped peppers
  • 1 red onion, chopped
  • 3 cloves garlic, chopped
  • 1 can of diced tomatoes
  • 1 can sweet corn
  • Chili powder
  • 2 cans beans
  • 1/2 cup chicken stock

Preparation:

  • To make it, the actress used a slow cooker.
  • First brown the turkey in two tablespoons of oil.
  • Then put the beans and vegetables in the slow cooker.
  • Add the tomato, onion, peppers, corn and then the chicken stock.
  • Let the slow cooker do its job for as long as you like. It can be up to eight hours on the lowest setting, or five hours on the highest setting.
  • When it’s ready, the actress divides it into bowls for each person, and you can season it with whatever add-ins you like: sour cream, shredded cheese, avocado and tortilla chips (these are included in the price of Drew’s meal).
  • Barrymore, too, chooses one of her favourite toppings: pickled red onions. “I love cilantro, a little pickled red onion,” she says.
