Ingredients

  • 2 turnips
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper

Sauce

  • 1 small onion
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • 14.5 oz tinned tomatoes
  • 1 tablespoon tomato puree
  • 2 teaspoons paprika smoked
  • ¼ teaspoon chilli powder

Instructions

  • Peel the turnips and cut them into small cubes.
  • Place the turnips on a baking tray, drizzle with the olive oil and season with the salt and pepper.

Make the sauce

  • Peel and chop the onion and the garlic cloves.
  • Heat the olive oil in a saucepan and cook the onion and garlic for 3-5 minutes until tender.
  • Add the paprika and chilli powder and stir well. Cook for a further 1-2 minutes.
  • Add the tinned tomatoes and bring to the boil.
  • Reduce to a simmer, add the tomato puree, cover and cook for 15 minutes. If the mixture looks to be becoming a bit dry, add a tablespoon or two of water.

  • Spoon the tomato mixture over the turnips, perhaps garnish with a scattering of flat leafed parsley.
  • Serve warm.
