Pan-Fried Turnips with Thyme
These pan-fried turnips are an easy way to prepare an under-utilized vegetable. Look for the smaller turnip variety called hakurei- the flavor is a bit more mild and great for people who don't always like turnips.

Ingredients
- ½ pound hakurei turnips
- 2 tablespoons ghee
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme
- ¼ cup homemade breadcrumbs
Instructions
- Trim the turnips, leaving about an inch of the greens on top. Cut the turnips into quarters.
- Place a medium pan over medium-low heat. Add the ghee to the pan, followed by the turnips and salt. Cooking, turning only a couple times, until the turnips are browning and tender; 6 to 8 minutes.
- Once the turnips are just about done, stir in the thyme and cook for another minute or so. Once the turnips are done, sprinkle with breadcrumbs before serving.
