Time 45m

Yield Eight servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 pounds turnips, peeled and coarsely diced
3 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 cup shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
1 cup heavy cream
Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/8 teaspoon minced parsley

Steps:

  • Place the turnips in a large pot of cold water and bring to a boil. Cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain and puree in a food processor. Set aside.
  • Meanwhile, heat 2 tablespoons of the butter in a deep saucepan over medium heat. Add the shallots and saute until they turn golden brown, about 15 minutes. Remove the shallots with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  • Set a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Add the cream and the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter and bring to a simmer. Briskly stir in the turnips. Season to taste with salt, pepper and the nutmeg. Divide the puree among 8 serving plates. Garnish liberally with the shallots and lightly with parsley. Serve immediately.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my mashed turnips turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much milk.

I wasn't a fan of the crispy shallots. I thought they were a bit too crunchy and they overpowered the flavor of the turnips.
