Ingredients
  • 4 pounds turnips, peeled, and cut into 1-inch wedges
  • ½ cup maple syrup
  • 3 tablespoons coarse-grain brown mustard
  • 2 tablespoons oil (your choice of cooking oil)
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
  1. Put the turnips in a large pot and cover them with water. Place it over medium-high heat and bring the water to a boil. Cook the turnips for 5 minutes, or until just softened. Drain and return the turnips to the pot off the heat.
  2. Preheat your oven to 350ºF and grease a large baking dish or jelly roll pan.
  3. Put the maple syrup, mustard, oils, salt, and pepper in a saucepan over low heat. Whisk and simmer for about 3 minutes to blend the flavors.
  4. Transfer the turnips to your prepared baking dish or pan and pour the warm maple-mustard sauce over top. Sprinkle with the thyme and stir to combine.
  5. Bake for 60 to 90 minutes, stirring every 20 to 30 minutes, or until the turnips are golden brown and very tender.
