Ingredients

  • 450 g (1 lb) parsnips
  • 1 large turnip
  • 450 g (1 lb) white turnips (rappini)
  • 30 ml (2 tbsp.) butter
  • 1 garlic clove, finely chopped

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 400° F (200° C).

Slice the parsnips, the turnip and the rappini into very fine spears, using a mandolin or a well sharpened knife.

In a large frying pan, brown the vegetables in butter until they are golden. Add the garlic and honey and cook for 1 minute. Season with salt, freshly ground pepper and fresh thyme.

Spread out the vegetables in a 3 L (13 in x 9 in) au gratin dish, alternating layers with slices of Le Cendré des Prés. End with a layer of cheese slices. Pour 35% cream over top.

Bake in the oven for around 30 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden brown. Serve hot, as a side dish.
