Delicious crispy turnip "fries." My daughters and I are on a low-carb diet and were looking for something to curb our French fry cravings. I’ve heard that turnips can be made into some great fries. I experimented with it and came up with this. You can add whatever spices you’d like.
Ingredients
- 3 pounds turnips
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Line a baking sheet with a piece of aluminum foil and lightly grease.
Step 2
Peel turnips, and cut into French fry-sized sticks, about 1/3 inch by 4 inches. Place into a large bowl and toss with vegetable oil to coat.
Step 3
Combine Parmesan, garlic salt, paprika, and onion powder in a resealable plastic bag; shake until well mixed.
Step 4
Place turnips into the bag and shake until evenly coated with the spices.
Step 5
Spread out onto the prepared baking sheet.
Step 6
Bake in the preheated oven until the outside is crispy and the inside is tender, about 20 minutes. Serve immediately.
