I just cooked turnips with onions and tomatoes. I don't know many people who like turnips(the only vegetable my kids refuse to eat!). My recipe turned out good, not great, but worth a taste.

Posting recipe here:

I used an Instant Pot but you can cook on the stove. Increase cooking time to t least 20 minutes on simmer.

Ingredients

– 4 tablespoons oil

– 1 cup tomato sauce

– 1 tablespoon sugar (coconut sugar or jaggery)

– 2 pounds turnips, chopped into cubes

– 2 tablespoons water

– 1 cup sliced onion

– 1 tablespoon ginger-garlic paste

– 2 green chilies, chopped

Whole Spices:

– 1 teaspoon cumin seeds

– 1 teaspoon red or black mustard seeds

– 2 bay leaves

– 10–12 curry leaves

Ground Spices:

– 1 teaspoon coriander powder (or fennel powder)

– 1 teaspoon dried mango powder (or 2 tablespoons lemon juice)

– 1 teaspoon garam masala

– 1 teaspoon salt (or to taste)

– 2 teaspoons paprika

– ½ teaspoon turmeric powder

Garnish:

– Fresh cilantro, chopped

Cooking Instructions

– Turn on the sauté function on your pressure cooker and add the oil.

– Once the oil is hot, add the cumin seeds, mustard seeds, and bay leaves.

– Cook until the cumin seeds turn brown and the mustard seeds start popping.

– Add the sliced onions and stir-fry for about 5 minutes until they soften.

– Stir in the ginger-garlic paste, green chilies, curry leaves, and ground spices.

– Sauté for about 30 seconds to release the flavors.

– Add the tomato sauce, sugar, chopped turnips, and water. Mix everything well.

– Secure the lid, close the pressure valve, and cook on high pressure for 5 minutes.

– Allow the pressure to release naturally for 5 minutes, then quickly release any remaining pressure.

– Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.

– Serve warm

  1. I would be interested! I’m always looking for new ways to eat things I get at the Farmers Market.

    I’d rather see a post about a turnip recipe than a post asking if people want to see turnip recipe.

  3. I’ve always found turnips too bitter but maybe I’ll again with this recipe
