Savory Coconut Turnip Delight

Ingredients

• 2 tbsp of vegetable oil
• 1/2 tsp of mustard seeds
• 1/4 tsp of asafoetida powder
• 2 turnips, sliced thinly after being quartered
• 4 fresh turnip leaves, chopped finely
• 1/2 finely minced onion
• 1 tsp of paprika
• 1 tsp of turmeric
• 1/2 tsp of salt
• 2 tbsp of water
• 1 tbsp of shredded coconut

Step 1

In a skillet, heat oil over high heat until sizzling. Add mustard seeds and cook until they stop crackling. Next, incorporate asafoetida powder with the mustard seeds, then toss in turnips, turnip leaves, and onion. Season this vibrant mix with paprika, turmeric, and salt. Pour in water, cover the skillet, and simmer over medium heat until turnips are tender yet retain a delightful crunch, about 5 to 7 minutes. Increase heat to high to evaporate any remaining liquid. Right before serving, sprinkle in shredded coconut for a final touch of flavor.
