Provided by Kardea Brown

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 bunches small turnips with greens attached
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1/4 cup pomegranate seeds

Steps:

  • Remove the greens from the turnips and reserve. Peel and cut the bulbs into 1/4-inch wedges. Remove and wash the tender leaves from the stems of the turnip greens. Chop the leaves and set aside.
  • Heat the butter and oil in a large cast-iron or other heavy-bottomed large skillet over medium heat. Add the turnip wedges and sprinkle with salt and pepper, stirring to coat with the butter and oil. Cook, stirring and flipping occasionally, until they are caramelized and tender, about 5 minutes per side. Add the honey, vinegar and pomegranate seeds, then cook until the mixture is combined and syrupy, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the turnip leaves and saute until they are wilted and darken in color, another 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish and serve immediately.

TURNIP GREENS SALAD



Turnip Greens Salad image

This Turnip Greens Salad was created using items from my garden. Because most people cook turnip greens, I wanted to present those same greens in a way that would retain their nutrient content. You can also add different kinds of meat, like cooked shrimp or chicken. -James McCarroll, Murfreesboro, Tennessee
