Beer Braised Turnips image

Turnips are a tough sell, but I find myself liking the bitterness more as I get older! These are sweet, deep, and mark the first time I have ever heard the phrase 'Can I finish the turnips?' This is a great side for turkey or pork roast.

Time 1h15m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 large turnip - peeled, halved lengthwise, and sliced 1/2-inch thick
2 tablespoons butter, cut into small pieces
1 (12 fluid ounce) bottle dark beer, or amount to cover
1 pinch dried savory
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Place the turnip in a pot with enough cold, salted water to cover. Bring the water to a boil and cook until the turnips are soft, about 7 minutes; drain. Transfer the turnips to a shallow baking dish. Dot the top of the turnips with pieces of butter. Pour enough of the beer into the dish to cover the turnips. Season with savory and salt.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the beer is mostly cooked off and the turnip is tender, about 1 hour.

I'm not a big fan of turnips, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was surprised at how much I enjoyed them! The beer braising really mellowed out the flavor of the turnips.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover turnips. I had some turnips that were starting to go bad, and this recipe saved them.

I followed the recipe exactly and the turnips were still tough. I think I would have needed to cook them for longer.

These turnips were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred them without the honey.

These turnips were a hit! I followed the recipe exactly and they turned out perfectly. The beer braising gave them a rich, savory flavor and the honey added a touch of sweetness. I served them with roasted chicken and everyone loved them.
