Number Of Ingredients 10

1 3/4 pounds white turnips, peeled and cut into pieces 2 1/2 inches by 1 1/2 inches in size
1 3/4 pounds golden turnips or rutabagas, peeled, cut into pieces 2 1/2 inches by 1 1/2 inches in size
10 shallots (about 10 ounces), peeled, root end intact
2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons extra-virgin olive oil
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
3/4 cup red-wine vinegar
2 bay leaves
6 sprigs fresh thyme
1/4 cup packed light-brown sugar
3 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Put turnips, shallots, and oil on a rimmed baking sheet. Season with salt and pepper; toss. Spread in a single layer. Roast until tender and golden brown, about 35 minutes.
  • Put vinegar, bay leaves, and thyme in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer; cook until reduced by about half, about 10 minutes. Add sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt; stir to dissolve. Add butter, and cook over medium heat until reduced to a syrupy glaze, about 10 minutes. Discard thyme. Pour over roasted vegetables; toss to coat. Serve immediately.

The turnips were a bit too hard for my liking. I think I would have cooked them for a bit longer.

This dish was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I would have preferred it with less sugar.
