method
1. Put the hazelnuts in an ungreased heavy-based pan over a low heat for 2-3 minutes, stirring until lightly browned. Combine with all the other salad ingredients in a bowl.
2. Blend all the dressing ingredients except the yogurt in a liquidizer. Transfer to a jug. Mix the yogurt into the dressing with a wooden spoon and stir the dressing into the salad. Mix the salad ingredients well.
Turkey is a very lean meat and can become rather dry after cooking. Avoid this happening by covering cooked turkey with stock before storing in the refrigerator if preparing it in advance.
