A great side dish with grilled duck. An astonishing way to add some zip to a vegetable I'm used to putting in a soup pot.

Ingredients

3 cups diced peeled turnips
¼ cup water
1 cube chicken bouillon
1 tablespoon butter, or more as needed
2 tablespoons white sugar

Steps:

Place the turnips into a skillet with the water and chicken bouillon cube over medium heat, and simmer until the water has evaporated and the turnips are tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the butter, let melt, and sprinkle on the sugar. Gently cook and stir the turnips until the butter and sugar cook into a brown, sticky coating on the turnips, about 10 minutes. Serve hot.
