Time 15m

Yield 10 - 14 servings

1/2 cup vegetable oil

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup chopped parsley

Steps:

  • Heat a third of the oil over a high flame in large skillet. Add a third of the turnips and shake pan well. Season with salt, pepper and about a third of the cumin.

Tips:

  • Choose the right turnips: Look for turnips that are small, firm, and have a smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid turnips that are large, soft, or have blemishes, as these may be old or have a bitter taste.
  • Grate the turnips finely: This will help them cook evenly and quickly. You can use a food processor or a box grater to grate the turnips.
  • Use a well-seasoned pan: A well-seasoned pan will help prevent the turnips from sticking. If you don't have a well-seasoned pan, you can coat it with a little oil before cooking.
  • Cook the turnips over medium heat: This will help them cook evenly without burning.
  • Stir the turnips frequently: This will help prevent them from sticking and ensure that they cook evenly.
  • Season the turnips to taste: Once the turnips are cooked through, season them with salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings.

Conclusion:

Sautéed grated white turnips are a simple but flavorful side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of meals. They are a good source of vitamins and minerals, and they can also help to boost your immune system. If you are looking for a healthy and delicious way to add more vegetables to your diet, sautéed grated white turnips are a great option.
