Turnip tots

Turnip tots! Like tater tots, only, you know, spicier.

Reprinted here from Food52:


4 baby turnips
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
2 tablespoons Panko bread crumbs
2 teaspoons minced mint leaves
1/2 teaspoon grated lemon zest
salt & pepper to taste 

In a large saucepan of boiling water cook turnips 10 minutes and drain. When turnips are cool enough to handle, cut each into wedges.

In a large skillet cook turnips in butter over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until almost tender and golden on the edges, about 10 minutes.

Stir in Panko bread crumbs, mint, zest, salt and pepper to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, until turnips are tender, about 5 minutes. Plate and enjoy!
