Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Peel turnips and cut into one-and-a-half-inch pieces. Put them in heavy saucepan with orange juice, chicken stock and one tablespoon butter. Season with salt and pepper; simmer uncovered until the turnips are tender and the liquid has evaporated (about 20 minutes). If more liquid is needed to cook the turnips, add a little more water.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, blanch and drain the orange peel.

  3. Step 3

    Add the remaining butter and the sugar to the turnips and continue cooking them, turning them with a spoon, until they are glazed. Sprinkle them with the grated peel and thyme leaves. Correct seasoning and serve.

I used half the orange juice called for and used 1Tbsp maple syrup and butter at the end instead of sugar. I skipped the orange zest. We will make it again, very delicious!

Yum! Worth making.
