Rosemary Turnips Recipes

ROASTED TURNIPS AND PEARS WITH ROSEMARY-HONEY DRIZZLE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
• In a large bowl, toss together turnips and pears with oil and salt until well combined. Place in an even layer on prepared baking sheet. Transfer to oven and roast, turning with a spatula once or twice during cooking, until browned and turnips are easily pierced with a paring knife, 25 to 30 minutes, rotating baking sheets halfway through baking.
• Meanwhile, melt butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add honey and rosemary; let simmer for a few seconds and remove from heat.
• Transfer turnips and pears to a large bowl and drizzle with butter mixture; toss to combine. Serve.

ROSEMARY TURNIPS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut your turnip(s) into bite size squares and place on a baking sheet. Drizzle olive oil over turnips and toss. Sprinkle kosher salt and pepper, make sure turnips are coated with oil, salt and pepper. Pull apart the rosemary and scatter over turnips. Bake at 350 for 30 to 35 minutes, turning over turnips one or two times while baking to help with crispiness.

SPRING LAMB WITH ROSEMARY AND TURNIPS

Steps:

• Season lamb generously with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with chopped rosemary, and rub the herbs into the surface of the lamb. Arrange rosemary sprigs on the bottom of a roasting pan. Lay lamb rack(s) over sprigs. Let meat come to room temperature before roasting.
• Heat oven to 375 degrees.
• Roast lamb, uncovered, for about 30 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part reads 125 degrees (for medium-rare). Let rest on a cutting board.
• Put turnips in a wide medium saucepan over medium heat and cover with 1 inch of water. Season with salt, add butter and bring to a brisk simmer. When turnips are fork-tender, about 5 minutes, add greens and cook, stirring, until wilted, about 2 more minutes. If desired, bring the water to a boil and let evaporate. Let turnips brown slightly in the remaining butter, if you like.
• Cut lamb racks into 4 thick chops or 8 thin chops, slicing between the bones.

ROASTED TURNIPS WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 450. Coat a heavy baking sheet with cooking spray and set aside.
• 2. Scrub, trim and peel turnips. Cut into 1/2" wedges.
• 3. Fill a medium saucepan with water, add bullion cubes and bring to a boil over high heat. Add turnip wedges and boil for five minutes.
• 4. Remove turnips from water with a slotted spoon to a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and rosemary. Gently toss to coat evenly.
• 5. Spread wedges evenly on baking sheet. Roast for five minutes. Remove, turn wedges and return to oven. Roast for five more minutes. Depending on your oven, you may want to roast them a few minutes longer. Remove from oven and place turnips in a warm serving dish. Serve immediately.

SAUTEED TURNIPS AND PARSNIPS WITH ROSEMARY

Steps:

• Heat oil and butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat until hot but not smoking, then cook turnips, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add parsnips and shallots and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and almost tender, about 10 minutes. Add garlic, rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste and cook, stirring, until vegetables are tender, about 3 minutes more.
