Roasted Turnips, Shallots and Garlic with Rosemary

 

Recipe By :Cook's Illustrated

Serving Size : 4 Preparation Time :0:00

Categories : New Import

 

Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 head garlic

1 1/2 pounds turnips or rutabagas -- (1 1/2-2)

4 shallots -- (4-6)

2 tablespoons melted butter -- see tip

1 teaspoon crumbled dried rosemary -- see tip

salt and ground black pepper

 

1. GARLIC: Put whole, unpeeled garlic head in small saucepan with water to

cover. Bring water to boil, then simmer to soften cloves and loosen skins, about

10 minutes. Drain and refresh garlic head under cold water. Separate cloves and

peel.

 

2. Meanwhile, peel the turnips or rutabagas and cut into 1 1/4-inch pieces. Peel

the shallots.

 

3. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Put turnips and shallots in roasting pan large

enough to hold them without crowding. Toss with butter and/or oil and sprinkle

with rosemary and salt to taste. Roast for 30 minutes, stirring or shaking

vegetables every 15 minutes.

 

4. Increase heat to 425 degrees, add garlic, and continue roasting until turnips

are tender and evenly browned, 15 to 20 minutes longer. Sprinkle with pepper;

taste and adjust seasonings. Serve hot or at room temperature.

 

TIP

* Replace butter with vegetable oil, or olive oil, or a combination of oil and

butter. * Rosemary: replace dried with double the amount of fresh.

NOTES : Roasted turnips are an easy side dish for Thanksgiving or any autumn

meal. Roasting concentrates the flavor and caramelizes the exterior of the

turnips.
