Roasted Turnips and Their Greens
This recipe is more of the sum of its few parts, and an atypical way to serve salad turnips.
Ingredients
1 bunch salad turnips
3 cloves garlic, sliced thinly
1/4 cup white wine
1/4 tsp chili flakes or sliced fry cayenne
Method
- Separate the turnip root from the leaves and cut into halves or quarters
- Cut the leaves into 2" long pieces
- Heat a glug of neutral oil in a large frying pan over high heat until smoking
- Add the cut turnips with a pinch of salt and let them sear until darkly caramelized
- Flip and sear the other cut side
- Add the leaves and toss to combine
- Add the white wine, garlic and chili flakes (it will steam heavily)
- Cook until the leaves are wilted and the wine is reduced
