Peppery Turnip Fries Recipes

TURNIP FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven 425 degrees F.
• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, spray with oil and set aside. Peel turnip, cut into 1/4 inch matchsticks and place in a medium bowl.
• Toss turnip with olive oil, and add the remaining seasonings. Transfer the seasoned turnips on a baking sheet in a single layer and bake for 30 minutes or until they are done, turning halfway. Serve immediately.
• Turnips are different from potatoes so don't expect the same crispy texture as potatoes. They have a delicious flavor and a great low carb substitute.

CRISPY TURNIP 'FRIES'

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a piece of aluminum foil and lightly grease.

Place the Parmesan cheese, garlic salt, paprika, onion powder in a resealable plastic bag, and shake to mix. Place the oiled turnips into the bag, and shake until evenly coated with the spices. Spread out onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Bake in preheated oven until the outside is crispy, and the inside is tender, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

TURNIP THE DISCO FRIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a large baking sheet with nonstick spray and set aside.
• Carefully cut turnips and potato into French-fry-shaped spears using a crinkle cutter if you have one. Place them in a single layer on the baking sheet and sprinkle evenly with salt and pepper. If needed, use another baking sheet sprayed with nonstick spray.
• Bake in the oven until tender on the inside and crispy on the outside, about 30 minutes, carefully flipping spears about halfway through. (The thicker the spears, the longer the bake time.)
• In a small nonstick pot on the stove, heat gravy over a low temperature until hot, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Once cool enough to handle, transfer fries to a microwave-safe plate. Evenly top with strips of cheese. Microwave just until cheese has melted, about 30 seconds. Garnish with chives, if you like, and set aside.
• Give gravy a stir and serve alongside cheese fries. Enjoy!
