Ingredients

• 500 g ground beef
• 400 g turnips
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 1 medium, finely chopped onion
• 2 minced garlic cloves
• 240 ml beef broth
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp dried thyme
• 0.5 tsp ground black pepper
• 0.5 tsp salt
• 2 tbsp, chopped fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

Peel the turnips and cut them into small cubes, similar in size to potato cubes.

Step 2

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ground beef and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes, breaking it apart as it cooks. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 3

In the same skillet, add another tablespoon of olive oil, then add the chopped onion. Sauté for about 3 minutes until it becomes translucent.

Step 4

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 5

Stir in the cubed turnips, ensuring they're coated in the fragrant oil and onion mixture.

Step 6

Pour in the beef broth, soy sauce, and Worcestershire sauce. Sprinkle with dried thyme, ground black pepper, and salt. Stir everything well to combine.

Step 7

Bring the mixture to a simmer, cover the skillet, and reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook for 15-20 minutes, or until the turnips are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 8

Return the cooked ground beef to the skillet and stir to combine with the turnips and sauce.

Step 9

Cook for an additional 5 minutes to heat through and allow the flavors to meld.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped fresh parsley before serving.
