Instructions: Naqli, sometimes spelled nakli, means false or fake in Hindi.

Remove puff pastry from freezer and let thaw. Wash rice, drain and set aside.

Heat water to a boil.

In another pot, heat oil and saute chutney for 5-7 minutes. Add washed rice and stir to coat rice with chutney. Add boiling water, nuts, peas and salt. Cook on high heat for 5 minutes. Lower heat and cook for 5 minutes more. Turn off heat and cover pot with a tight fitting lid for 5 minutes and let the steam finish the cooking process.

Spread out the pastry sheet on a clear surface area. With a rolling pin, roll pastry sheet out to twice its size. Take a baking tray and pour the rice in it.

The rice should be warm to mold it. Dampen your hands in water and mold rice in an oval shape. Cut the approximate same size of puff pastry sheet and drape it over rice mold. Take a bamboo skewer and shape more rice around it, then drape with pastry. Using the extra skewers, attach the leg to the oval shape of rice. Do the same with another skewer.

In a bowl, mix ketchup, powdered cumin and 1 tablespoon water. With a basting brush, apply this ketchup mixture all over the pastry sheet cover. Bake the turkey in a preheated 350-degree oven for 30 minutes or until it looks almost done. (Baste turkey with ketchup mixture a couple of times during the baking process).
