Sauteed Hakurei Turnips and Greens

1 bunch hakurei turnips with greens

1 med. onion, thinly sliced

1 tablespoon olive oil

sea salt and ground black pepper

Seasoning: cider vinegar & tamari soy sauce, cooked crumbled bacon, or hot sauce & toasted sesame oil

Rinse the turnips and greens well. Cut the greens from the turnips and chop into 2-inch pieces. Trim any straggly roots from the turnips and discard.

Cut the turnips into quarters or eighths, depending on size.

In a sauté pan with a lid, heat the olive oil. Add the onion and saute until just beginning to brown, about 5-10 minutes. Add the turnips, sprinkle well with salt and pepper, and sauté until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. If you like them crisp -tender, remove the turnips from the pan. Otherwise, to soften the turnips, leave them in while you cook the greens.

Add the greens to the pan, along with any moisture still clinging to the leaves. Cover the pan and allow the greens to cook, stirring once or twice, until just tender, about 3-5 minutes.

If you removed the turnips, return them to the pan; cook 1 to 2 minutes to heat through.

Season well with salt & ground black pepper, then add your choice of seasoning & Serve!
