Preparation

Salt the slices of turkey. Finely chop the walnuts and set aside. Lightly oil a frying pan and toast the slices of turkey on one side. Turn the slices over, put a slice of cheese on each, sprinkle with the chopped nuts and add the cream. Finish cooking with the cream until it becomes thick and sauce-like. Serve hot.

Tips
If you are not fond of turkey or do not have any to hand, use a common chicken breast instead. The outcome will also be lovely!
Trivia
Americans spend all year breeding turkeys in preparation for Thanksgiving, a festival that takes place every year on the fourth Thursday of November. Each family has its own recipe for the famous stuffed turkey. Suffice it to say that on the East Coast it is common to stuff the turkey with oysters! Common to all of America, however, is the tradition of serving the turkey with sweet potatoes, gravy, cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie.
