Categories     Grains

Time 2h5m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

5 -6 shallots, peeled
1 1/2 cups light olive oil or 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large yellow turnips, about 4 pounds (also called rutabagas or swedes)
1 cup milk
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Slice the shallots crosswise into very thin rings.
  • In a saucepan, heat the oil with 3 tablespoons butter over medium-low heat until it begins to bubble.
  • Reduce the heat to low, add the shallots and cook until they are a rich golden brown, about 30-40 minutes; stir the shallots occasionally while they are cooking to make sure they brown evenly.
  • Remove the shallots from the oil with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  • Once the shallots have dried and crisped, in about 15 minutes, they can be stored in a cool place, covered, for several days.
  • Serve the shallots at room temperature.
  • Peel the turnips to remove their waxy skins, and cut them into generous 1-inch chunks.
  • Place them in a saucepan with water to cover and 1 teaspoon of salt.
  • Bring to a boil and simmer, covered, until easily pierced by a paring knife, about 35 minutes.
  • In a separate saucepan, heat the milk and 6 tablespoons butter over low heat until the butter has melted and the milk just begins to simmer.
  • Drain the turnips, and puree (in several batches, if necessary) in a food processor.
  • With the motor running, add the melted butter and milk in a steady stream; the turnips should be very smooth.
  • Return the turnip puree to the saucepan, season with 1 teaspoon salt and the pepper and reheat, stirring over a medium flame.
  • Serve piping hot, sprinkled generously with crispy shallots.

Tips:

  • To save time, use a food processor to grate the turnips.
  • If you don't have a food processor, you can grate the turnips by hand using a box grater.
  • Be sure to squeeze out as much excess water from the turnips as possible before cooking them.
  • This will help the turnips to brown and caramelize in the butter.
  • Don't be afraid to add a little bit of spice to the turnips.
  • A pinch of cayenne pepper or a dash of paprika can really liven up the flavor.
  • To make the crispy shallots, be sure to slice them very thinly.
  • This will help them to crisp up quickly in the hot oil.
  • Don't overcrowd the shallots in the pan when frying them.
  • This will prevent them from sticking together and becoming soggy.

Conclusion:

Mashed yellow turnips with crispy shallots is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The turnips are creamy and flavorful, while the crispy shallots add a nice crunch and a pop of flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
