Deliciously spiced and tender, this simple dish of Pan Roasted Turnips with Harissa is all about bold flavor with minimal fuss. Ready in 25 minutes, these turnips can be enjoyed as a healthy side dish or added to bowls and salads.
Peel the turnips and chop them into bite-sized cubes. Peel and chop the onion as well.
Add the olive oil to a large skillet and sauté the onions for about 5 minutes over medium-high heat, until the onions begin to brown.
Add in the turmeric and harissa.
Then add in the turnips and 2 tablespoons of water to the pan. Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid. Lower the heat on the stove to between medium and low, and let cook for 8 minutes.
Uncover, add one more tablespoon of water to loosen up all those delicious brown bits at the bottom of the pan. Stir well.
Season with salt and pepper, optionally garnish with parsley and red pepper flakes, and enjoy!
