Number Of Ingredients 7

6 medium purple-topped turnips (14 to 15 ounces), unpeeled and cut into 1/2- to 3/4-inch cubes
2 firm ripe Bosc pears (about 7 ounces each), unpeeled, cored, and cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 teaspoons coarse salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons honey
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary

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.

I'm not sure about the rosemary and honey drizzle. I think it might be better with just a simple olive oil and salt.

Meh. I wasn't really a fan of the turnips. They were kind of bland. The pears were good though.

This was a great way to use up some leftover turnips. I didn't have any pears, so I used apples instead. It was still really good!

Not bad! I thought the turnips were a bit too hard, but the pears were delicious. I might try roasting the turnips for a little longer next time.

OMG!! This was so good! I made it for my family and they loved it too. The turnips were perfectly roasted and the pears were sweet and juicy. The rosemary and honey drizzle just made everything sing :)

This dish was incredibly flavorful, with the pears and roasted turnips balancing each other out nicely. The rosemary and honey drizzle added a touch of sweetness and earthiness that really brought the dish together.
