Preparation steps

Rinse, peel and cut turnips in half crosswise.

Spread 1/2 tablespoon oil over the bottom of a flat baking dish. Place turnips in the dish with the cut sides facing up. Optionally, cut a small slice on the rounded side of each turnip piece to keep cut sides upright.

Sprinkle turnips with salt. Cover baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in a preheated oven on the middle rack at 400°F/convection 350°F for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, rinse chives, shake dry and cut into small rings.

Separate eggs. Beat egg whites and 1 pinch of salt with a hand mixer until stiff. Fold the sesame seeds, chives and breadcrumbs into the egg whites. (Save the egg yolks for another use).

Place a scoop of egg white mixture on each turnip piece. Put the turnips back in the oven and bake for another 10-15 minutes.

Meanwhile, rinse lettuce and spin dry. In a small bowl, whisk vinegar, salt, pepper and remaining oil. Season with sweetener to taste.

Mix salad with the vinaigrette and distribute on 4 plates. Place baked turnips on salad and serve.
