Sauteed Sliced Turnips
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 3 pounds turnips, peeled and sliced as thin as potato chips (a mandoline works best for this)
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 1/4 teaspoon cumin
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup chopped parsley
- Heat a third of the oil over a high flame in large skillet.
- Add a third of the turnips and shake pan well.
- Season with salt, pepper and about a third of the cumin.
- Continue sauteeing until slices are evenly golden brown, about 7 minutes.
- Repeat twice with similar portions of oil, turnips and cumin.
- Drain turnips well as you make each batch and set aside.
- Melt butter in the skillet over high heat and return all turnips to the pan to brown slightly.
- Toss and shake them in pan as they cook, about 2 minutes.
- Transfer turnips to a warm serving bowl and garnish with parsley.
