Beer Braised Turnips

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.

Step: 1

Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step: 2

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.

Step: 3

Bake in the preheated oven until the beer is mostly cooked off and the turnip is tender, about 1 hour.

One of most obvious way to choose a side dish is to caught at your main dish (pasta, chicken, seared tofu) and choose more different. If you’re making pasta, make sure for a simple vegetable . Made steak? Go for something light. If you’re making stir-fry with rice, it must not a good idea to also make a rice salad.

This also can make to cooking process . You don’t want to push more often your oven by scheduling three dishes at once in there, or be rounding four pans on the cooking items . But sometimes you can made a dish do double-duty .
