Candied Turnips...yummy

Candied Turnips

2-3 yellow turnips peeled and sliced into 1/4 inch chips
1/4 cup sugar free maple syrup
2 teaspoons butter


Fry the turnip slices in a non stick skillet in butter over medium heat until both side of the slices reach a golden brown. Reduce the heat to low and pour in the maple syrup making sure all sides of the slices are well coated. Cook the slices for 2-3 minutes then remove the skillet from the heat

Wow!  Great idea Doug!!  I used to love candied yams that Mom cooks in her black iron skillet.  This would be a great substitute for me!  Thanks!!

They are good Jan, I grew up with candied parsnips cooked the same way then candied with brown sugar, this recipe replaces those for me.  Enjoy!

When I was young my Mom grew parsnips...in fact she still does To make them really delish for us kids she would fry them in butter, then caramelize them with more butter and brown sugar. I developed this replacement dish and BOY does it do the job!
