Recipe Summary Turnip With Coconut

My Indian mother-in-law makes this yummy side with turnips, but I actually like it best with celeriac. It could probably be adapted to any root-type vegetable. Hing (asafoetida powder) does not add to the flavor; it is actually to aid in digestion, so it is somewhat optional.

Ingredients | Turnip Cake Recipe Vegan

2 tablespoons vegetable oil

½ teaspoon mustard seed

¼ teaspoon asafoetida powder

2 turnips, quartered and sliced thinly

4 fresh turnip leaves, chopped

½ onion, minced

1 teaspoon paprika

1 teaspoon turmeric

½ teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons water

1 tablespoon shredded coconut

Directions

Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat; cook the mustard seeds in the hot oil until the seeds no longer are crackling. Stir the asafoetida powder into the mustard seeds; add the turnips, turnip leaves, and onion to the skillet. Season the mixture with the paprika, turmeric, and salt. Pour the water over the mixture, place a cover on the skillet, reduce heat to medium, and cook until the turnip is cooked yet remains crunchy, 5 to 7 minutes. Return heat to high to cook off any excess water. Mix the coconut into the mixture just before serving.
