Turnip Recipe

Use the freshest vegetables you can to make this turnip recipe. I can't tell you that it is the most exciting dish, but my family all enjoy it and I find something very nourishing about eating such an ancient, dependable food as the turnip. This recipe goes well with baked chicken.


Navet Glacés

navets-glaces
  • 6 fresh turnips, scrubbed clean
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
Cut the turnips into 1/4 inch slices and cook in a pot of boiling water for about 6 minutes, or just until fork tender. Drain.

Heat butter in a frying pan on medium heat and add turnip slices. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Cook, stirring occasionally until the sugar starts to caramelize - about 5 to 10 minutes. Serve warm.

Makes 4 servings.
