Smashed Turnips With Fresh Horseradish image

Don't pass turnips by the next time you're at the market. When cooked right, their earthy flavor is seriously irresistible. At The Meatball Shop, people go crazy for them. The kick from the horseradish brings out the natural sweetness, and the sour cream adds a tangy, rich element.

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 large turnips (about 2 pounds), peeled and quartered
1/2 cup sour cream
6 scallions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons freshly grated horseradish, or more to taste
2 teaspoons salt

Steps:

  • Place the turnips in a large pot with enough water to cover by 2 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer until fork-tender, about 25 minutes. Drain thoroughly, until completely dry.
  • Place the turnips in a bowl and, while they are still hot, add the sour cream, scallions, horseradish and salt. Mash with a wire whisk or potato masher until well combined but still chunky. Serve immediately.
