TURNIPS****Roasted Turnips, Shallots, and Garlic

By Unblond1

We both liked this very much. I overdid it a bit though, and the garlic and the shallots were quite black. Watch it in the final 5 minutes.

Ingredients

• 4 cloves garlic, peeled and halved
• 1 pound baby turnips, peeled and cut into wedges
• 2 shallots, peeled and cut into wedges
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 sprig fresh rosemary
• 1 sprig fresh thyme, table salt
• 1 pinch cayenne pepper
• 1 pinch freshly grated nutmeg
• Maldon salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

* Combine all ingredients in a zip-lock bag and refrigerate until serving time, overnight if desired.

* Preheat oven to 475 degrees. Place turnips on a rimmed baking sheet, arrange in a single layer and roast until golden on both sides, 25 to just 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
