Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium Turnips
- 3 tablespoons Olive Oil
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion Powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper
- 1 tablespoon Fresh Rosemary
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C).
Peel the turnips and cut them into chunks approximately 1 to 1.5 inches in size, mimicking the size and shape of traditional roast potatoes.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until well blended.
Add the turnip chunks to the bowl and toss them well until each piece is evenly coated with the spice mixture.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the seasoned turnips out in a single layer on the baking sheet, ensuring they are not overcrowded.
Roast the turnips in the preheated oven for 25 minutes, then remove them and turn each piece over to ensure even crisping.
Return the turnips to the oven and continue roasting for an additional 20 minutes or until golden brown and crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Remove the baking sheet from the oven and sprinkle the roasted turnips with finely chopped fresh rosemary for a burst of flavor.
Serve hot as a delicious and low-carb alternative to traditional roast potatoes.
