How To Make Sautéed Turnips

Making sautéed turnips is one of my favorite ways to prepare this root vegetable because they cook up moist and flavorful.

Smaller turnips (such as baby turnips) can be left whole. Larger turnips should be cut in half or quarters. But diced is best -- the smaller the cut, the quicker they will cook up for you.

Place a frying pan with a lid over medium heat. Add a little extra-virgin olive oil (1 teaspoon should do it). When the oil is hot, add pre-peeled turnips. Stir. Add a few Tablespoons of water** and cover with lid. Sauté for 10-25 minutes, depending on how small you have made the cuts. Turnips are done when they're tender to your liking.

Now comes the fun part. Use the Turnip "Vegan Flavor Matches" to create your very own recipe. Add the foods and flavors you like directly to your pan. Warm. Serve.

** Adding a little water or other liquid (such as vegetable broth) to the pan ensures that the oil doesn't ever get too hot and makes for a very tender end result. Plus, you use less oil this way, which is healthier. ;o)
