Serves: 4-6 servings
Ingredients
2 lbs
turnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch wedges
2 Tbsp
unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
1 cup
water
4 tsp
red wine vinegar
1 Tbsp
honey
1 Tbsp
poppy seeds
3/4 tsp
kosher salt
1/4 tsp
freshly ground black pepper
1 Tbsp
olive oil
Step by Step Instructions
- Arrange turnips in a single layer in a large, heavy-bottomed pot. Dot butter over the top, add water, and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, stirring rarely, until all the water has evaporated, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine vinegar, honey, poppy seeds, salt, and pepper in a small, nonreactive bowl. While constantly whisking, add oil in a thin stream until fully incorporated; set aside.
- Increase heat to high and cook turnips, stirring rarely, until fork tender and browned, about 5 minutes. (They should be cooked through but sill retain their shape.)
- Remove from heat. Add vinaigrette to the pot, stir to combine. Add more salt and black pepper to taste.
