Cook the macaroni according to package instructions, drain, rinse with hot water, and drain again
In a large bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, curry powder, and lemon juice
Add the cooked macaroni while it's still warm and stir until well coated
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 3-4 hours
A little before serving, add the chopped green onions, parsley, turnips, cucumber, bell pepper, and salted beef
Mix carefully
Arrange on a platter and top with roast beef (or cooked ham if preferred)
If you can't find ready-cut roast beef, use cooked ham sliced into thin strips
Serves 6
Instead of using store-bought curry powder, you can make your own blend by frying one tablespoon of coriander seeds in one tablespoon of olive oil, then adding two tablespoons of ground cinnamon, one tablespoon of ground cumin, and a pinch of ground ginger
