Share:
Ingredients
- 6 Medium Turnips (about 1 1/2 pounds or 700g) peeled and diced
- 7 to 9 to 9 garlic cloves sliced in halves
- 1 tablespoon white vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sugar substitute
- 1 teaspoon salt (in water) + 1/4 teaspoon salt (in mash)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon butter
- ½ teaspoon white pepper
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 220 °C - 425 °F
- Add diced turnips to a pan with 1 tablespoon white vinegar, 1 tablespoon keto sweetener (like erythritol) and 1 teaspoon of salt. Fill the pan with water to cover the turnips and bring it to a boil for about 15 minutes.
- Drain the turnips of water, and transfer them to a baking pan, together with the garlic cloves. Toss them with one tablespoon of olive oil, and take into the oven to roast for about 35 minutes, or until tender and golden. Stir the turnips at half time, to cook evenly.
- Transfer roasted turnips and garlic to a large bowl, add the butter, white pepper and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mash the turnips with a fork or potato masher until desired consistency. Serve hot.
Notes
- Younger/smaller turnips will taste less bitter and less peppery than larger turnips.
- Smashing the turnips by hand gives a rustic texture (as in photos). If you prefer a smoother consistency, use a food processor.
- Dice the turnips into small, bite sized pieces for them to cook faster. Larger pieces will take longer to cook.
- The mash is quite thick, if you prefer it creamier thin it out by adding heavy cream or sour cream. Add one to 3 tablespoons, mixing between each addition until you find the right texture.
