The name, vodka, comes from the Russian phrase zhiznennaia voda, or "water of life". It can be made from everything from potatoes to beets. It's considered to be fairly flavorless which makes it a great liquor for mixed drinks.

This simple and hearty chili is made with turkey, vegetables, and two kinds of beans with a subtle curry flavor.

1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
1 small bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 hot pepper, minced, optional
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
2 teaspoons curry powder
2 cups raw turkey, cut in small chunks
1 can (16 ounce size) pinto beans, rinsed and drained
1 can (16 ounce size) white navy beans, rinsed and drained
2 cups chicken or turkey stock, or water
salt and pepper, to taste
Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook, stirring frequently, for 4-5 minutes or until soft. Stir in the garlic, bell pepper, and fresh parsley. If adding the hot pepper, add that now too. Stir the vegetables for 2-3 minutes over medium heat.
Stir in the curry powder and cook for one minute, stirring constantly to completely coat the vegetables.
Add the turkey, pinto beans, navy beans, and stock. Stir well to mix. Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce the heat to low and let cook at a low simmer for 30 minutes or until the turkey is cooked through.
Season to taste with salt and pepper.

This was good, although it was heavy on the turkey meat. Could probably reduce the amount of turkey somewhat. It was a little soupier than I expected. But at least that helped to keep the turkey cubes moist.
