Nutritional values
The fine vegetables are rich in fibre; that is why they keep the blood sugar level constant and thus make you full for a long time.
Not only turnips get this elegant preparation method. It is also suitable for carrots, parsnips or pumpkin. However, the cooking times can be changed: just pierce the pieces and feel if they are soft enough inside. Sprinkled with roasted sunflower seeds, all these glazed vegetables have more bite; they also provide vitamins and valuable fatty acids.

Preparation steps
Peel turnips, halve lengthwise and cut each half into 3 wedges.
Arrange turnips in a non-stick pan in a single layer.
Pour in enough water to come halfway up turnips.
Add butter and maple syrup and season with salt and a pinch of pepper.
Cover, bring to a boil and cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until turnips are tender, about 10 minutes.
Remove lid and cook until the water is completely evaporated, 4-5 minutes more.
Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until turnips are caramelized, 4-5 minutes more.
Meanwhile, rinse the parsley, shake dry, pluck leaves and finely chop. Add to turnips, stir to coat, and serve.
