ROASTED TURNIPS WITH ROSEMARY

This recipe is a hit even with those who swear that they don't like turnips! The rosemary mellows the sometimes sharp taste of the turnips for a perfect flavor combination. For a change, try substituting the olive oil with bacon grease or schmaltz.

Categories     Vegetables

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 5

4 large turnips
2 tsp kosher salt (more or less to taste)
2 tsp rosemary, dried
2 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
2 chicken bouillon cubes

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450. Coat a heavy baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
  • 2. Scrub, trim and peel turnips. Cut into 1/2" wedges.
  • 3. Fill a medium saucepan with water, add bullion cubes and bring to a boil over high heat. Add turnip wedges and boil for five minutes.
  • 4. Remove turnips from water with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and rosemary. Gently toss to coat evenly.
  • 5. Spread wedges evenly on baking sheet. Roast for five minutes. Remove, turn wedges and return to oven. Roast for five more minutes. Depending on your oven, you may want to roast them a few minutes longer. Remove from oven and place turnips in a warm serving dish. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right turnips: Look for small, firm turnips with smooth skin. Avoid turnips that are large, soft, or have blemishes.
  • Prepare the turnips properly: Peel the turnips and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Toss the turnips with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
  • Roast the turnips at a high temperature: This will help to caramelize the turnips and give them a slightly crispy exterior.
  • Add the pears and rosemary: After the turnips have roasted for about 20 minutes, add the pears and rosemary to the pan. Continue roasting for another 10-15 minutes, or until the pears are tender.
  • Make the honey drizzle: While the turnips and pears are roasting, make the honey drizzle by combining honey, olive oil, rosemary, and salt in a small bowl. Whisk until combined.
  • Drizzle the honey over the turnips and pears: Once the turnips and pears are roasted, drizzle the honey mixture over them. Serve immediately.
