Braised Turnips Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 160C/140C fan/gas 3. Add the oil and butter to a large flameproof casserole dish over a medium heat. Once foaming, add the onions, cook for a few mins until they start to soften, then add the stock and marmalade.
• Bring to the boil, drop in the turnips, cover with a lid and put the dish in the oven for 25 mins. Remove from the oven and check that the turnips are soft.
• Put the dish back on the hob and add the cream. Simmer over a medium-high heat for 10 mins or until the cream becomes lovely and thick. Season and stir in the rosemary just before serving, scattering a little extra over the top, if you like.

Steps:

• Put the turnips, chicken stock, 1/2 tablespoon of the butter, sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium skillet. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce the heat to a bare simmer and cook, covered, until the turnips are just tender, about 10 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer the turnips to a bowl.
• Increase the heat to medium high and boil the remaining chicken stock until it reduces to 2 tablespoons, about 7 minutes. Off the heat, return the turnips to the skillet. Add the remaining tablespoon butter and the tarragon; stir until the butter is melted and the turnips are well coated. Garnish with additional chopped tarragon.

Steps:

• Place the turkey wings in a 3-quart saucepan and add enough water to just cover them, about 5 cups. Bring to a boil, skimming off any foam that forms on the surface. Reduce to a simmer and let cook, uncovered, 1 1/2 hours. Strain the wings and remove the meat from the bones and set aside; discard the bones. Reserve 1 1/2 cups of the broth; save the remaining broth for another use.
• Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the onion and cook until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the garlic and red pepper and cook 1 minute more. Add turnip greens in batches, allowing each batch to wilt and stirring to distribute before adding the next batch.
• Once all the greens are added, stir in the vinegar, brown sugar, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Return the turkey to the pot along with the reserved broth. Reduce the heat to low, cover and let simmer until the greens are very tender, about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Add the butter to a large skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the turnips to the pan and cook until slightly browned and just tender, about 10 minutes. Add the greens and stock, and simmer until the turnips are cooked through and greens are tender, 10 to 12 minutes. Stir in the vinegar and season with salt and pepper to serve.

Steps:

• In a large saute pan, heat pan on medium and add the mustard seeds. Toast seeds until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add butter and oil. When butter is melted, add the turnips and cabbage and saute until cabbage begins to wilt, about 5 minutes. Mix in vinegar and stock. Bring mixture to a simmer, cover and braise until a knife inserted in a turnip comes out easily and cabbage is wilted and tender, about 25 minutes. Season, to taste, with salt.

Steps:

• Combine the cumin, garlic salt, oregano and mustard powder in a small bowl. Sprinkle the pork medallions on all sides with salt, followed by the rub.
• In a large straight-sided saute pan, heat the canola over high heat until it begins to smoke, then turn down the to medium. Add the pork medallions and sear until caramelized on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip, then sear on the other side until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 130 degrees F, about 4 more minutes. Remove the pork and set aside to rest. Return the pan to the heat and add the scallions and garlic. Cook over low heat until softened, about 3 minutes. Add the turnips and cook, stirring to coat the vegetables, for 1 minute. Add the white wine and chicken stock, scraping up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and reduce by three-quarters, about 5 minutes. Chiffonade 1/2 cup of the turnip greens and add to the sauce with the butter and rosemary. Return the pork and any accumulated juices to the pan. Remove from the heat and top with the Parmesan. Divide among plates and garnish with the chives.

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add turnips and stir to heat through. Add leeks and sauté until leeks are soft, about 5 minutes. Season with pepper. Add wine and bay leaf and boil until liquid is reduced to glaze, about 3 minutes. Add stock and boil until liquid is reduced by half, about 7 minutes. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until turnips are tender and almost no liquid remains in skillet, about 20 minutes. (Can be made 2 hours ahead. Cover and let stand at room temperature.)
• Cook potatoes in large pot of boiling water until tender. Drain well. Puree through food mill into same pot. Reheat turnip mixture boiling to reduce liquid to glaze if necessary. Discard bay leaf. Puree turnip mixture through food mill into same pot with potatoes. Mix together gently, adding enough milk to thin to desired consistency. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with parsley and serve.

Steps:

• Cut away duck backbones and discard. Cut off first 2 joints of each wing and reserve. Cut ducks into quarters. Remove any fat. Pat duck pieces dry with paper towels. Pierce skin all over with fork. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat vegetable oil in heavy large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Working in batches, add duck quarters, skin side down, and cook until golden, about 8 minutes. Turn and cook 3 minutes longer. Transfer to large bowl. Add wings and giblets to Dutch oven and cook until golden, turning frequently, about 10 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer to another bowl.
• Pour off all but 2 tablespoons duck fat from Dutch oven. Add onions, carrots, parsley stems, thyme and bay leaf to Dutch oven. Cover and cook until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes. Add 3 1/2 cups broth, wine, giblets and wings. Cover and simmer 30 minutes.
• Strain liquids and return to pot. Add duck quarters; bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover partially and simmer until cooked through, turning occasionally, about 40 minutes. Transfer duck to plate.
• Cook turnips in large pot of boiling salted water until just tender, about 25 minutes. Drain; cut into quarters. Combine 1/4 cup chicken broth and cornstarch in small bowl and whisk to blend.
• Skim fat from duck cooking liquid. Boil liquid until reduced to 2 1/2 cups, about 10 minutes. Add cornstarch mixture and whisk until sauce thickens slightly. Add duck and turnips. Reduce heat, cover and simmer until duck and turnips are heated through, about 7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover; chill. Rewarm over medium heat.) Transfer to large bowl. Top with minced parsley.

Steps:

• Cut the beef into cubes about 1 - 1 1/2 inch thick. Peel the radish or turnips and cut into cubes about the same size. (If using regular radishes, peel and thinly slice).
• Combine the dark soy sauce, rice wine or sherry and green onion in a small bowl. Set aside.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large pot on medium heat. Add the ginger and garlic and then the beef. Cook for 4 - 5 minutes to brown the beef, turning it over at least once.
• Stir in the soy sauce mixture and allow to cook for a minute. Add the water and bring to a boil. (Add the pepper at this time if using). Turn down the heat, cover, and simmer for 1 hour (in simmering the temperature is just below the boiling point).
• Add the radish and stir in the sugar. Simmer, uncovered, for 20 more minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning, add more pepper and/or salt if desired.

Steps:

• Bring greens, ham hock, water, and 1/4 teaspoon salt to a boil in a large heavy pot. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until greens are almost tender, about 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, peel apples and cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
• Add turnips and apples to greens with vinegar, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper and cook at a bare simmer, covered, stirring and turning ham hock occasionally, until turnips and apples are tender but not falling apart, about 20 minutes more. Remove from heat and stir in butter and salt to taste.
• Remove ham hock and finely chop any tender meat, discarding skin, bone, and tough meat. Add chopped meat to pot.

Steps:

• Peel the turnips and put them in a large bowl with the sugar and pinch of fine salt. Toss to coat the turnips thoroughly.
• In a large pot, melt the butter. When it is blond and foamy, add the turnips to the pot in a single layer and brown on all sides. When they are golden brown, add a third of the chicken broth and cook, covered, over low heat until the broth has been completely absorbed. Repeat a second and then a third time: When this is done, the turnips are cooked. (Turnips should never be left dry in the pot. If the broth reduces too quickly, add a bit of water when necessary.)
• Drizzle with a few spoons of chicken jus or olive oil and bring to a simmer. When it begins to bubble, sprinkle with parsley and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Melt butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat, then add turnips, water, lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer, covered, 30 minutes. Increase heat to medium and stir turnips, then briskly simmer, uncovered, until all of liquid has evaporated and turnips are glazed and just tender, 20 to 35 minutes (they should be cooked through but still retain their shape).
• Heat oil in a large heavy skillet over medium heat until it shimmers, then cook garlic, stirring, until pale golden, about 1 minute. Add bread crumbs and poppy seeds and cook, stirring frequently, until golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in parsley and salt to taste. Just before serving, sprinkle bread crumbs over turnips.
