Herbed Mashed Turnips

 HERBED MASHED TURNIPS

Ingredients

Turnips

Olive Oil

Fresh, finely chopped herbs (parsley, thyme, dill)


Method

Peel and cut turnips into 1-inch pieces. 

Place turnip pieces in a pot with salted water or vegetable broth. Bring to a boil over high heat, then simmer 15–20 minutes until tender and easily pierced with a fork.

Drain the turnips thoroughly, then return to the hot pot off the heat. Let steam for 1–2 minutes to evaporate excess moisture for a fluffier mash.

Mash the turnips with a fork or potato masher until smooth.

Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over the mash, then gently fold in the chopped herbs. Stir until the mash becomes silky and speckled with green.

Salt and pepper to taste.
