One of the best recipes I've ever tasted for turnips (other than those lovely greens). Adapted from the classic Silver Palate.
Ingredients:
1 pound of turnips about 4 of them
3 ripe but still firm pears
4 tablespoons of butter
2 shallots
1/2 cup of walnut halves
1 tbsp of honey
1/3 cup of crumbled blue cheese
chopped fresh parsley
Directions:
1. Peel the turnips and cut in half, then slice.
2. Cut the pear in half, Core and cut in slices.
3. Melt the butter in a large skillet and saute the turnips until golden about 7 minutes.
4. Add the pears and the shallots.
5. Cook another 4 minutes or so to soften the shallots.
6. Add the walnuts and cook until heated through, about 2 minutes.
7. Season with a pinch or two of salt, some grinds of black pepper.
8. Drizzle with honey and top with crumbled blue cheese and chopped parsley and serve.
