Preheat the oven to 180°C/gas mark 4.
Heat the oil in a large pan or casserole and add the turkey to brown slightly.
Add the chorizo and tomato puree and stir well.

Tip in the canned tomatoes, vinegar, a little salt and pepper and the stock.
Stir well.
Cover and cook in the oven for 30-40 mins.
Once cooked, remove from the oven and remove the lid, bring to a gentle simmer and then thicken with a little of the cornflour and water if required.
