Categories     side-dish

Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 pound pearl onions
1 1/2 pounds turnips, peeled and cut into wedges
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup honey
4 wide strips lemon zest, removed with a vegetable peeler
2 bay leaves (preferably fresh)
Kosher salt
1 pound parsnips, peeled and cut into 2-inch pieces
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Steps:

  • Prepare the pearl onions: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Add the pearl onions to the boiling water and cook 1 minute. Drain and transfer to the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain again, then slip off the skins.
  • Combine the turnips, butter, honey, lemon zest, bay leaves, 1 3/4 teaspoons salt and 1/4 cup water in a large nonstick skillet. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then cover and cook until the turnips are just slightly tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Stir in the parsnips and pearl onions, cover and cook until the vegetables are tender, 8 to 10 minutes. Uncover and simmer, stirring occasionally, until most of the liquid is evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes. Gently toss the vegetables to coat and transfer to a serving dish. Top with the chives.

Tips:

  • Choose the right turnips: Look for turnips that are small to medium in size, with smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid turnips that are large or have cracks or bruises.
  • Peel the turnips thinly: Use a sharp knife or vegetable peeler to remove just the thin outer layer of skin from the turnips. This will help to preserve the turnips' delicate flavor and texture.
  • Slice the turnips evenly: Cut the turnips into uniform slices so that they cook evenly. If the slices are too thick, they will take longer to cook and may not soften completely.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the turnips and onions, make sure not to overcrowd the pan. This will prevent them from cooking evenly and may cause them to steam rather than sauté.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add a touch of sweetness with a pinch of sugar or honey.

Conclusion:

Turnips and onions are a classic combination that can be enjoyed in many different ways. This simple recipe is a great way to showcase the natural flavors of these two vegetables. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a delicious and healthy side dish that will complement any meal.
