Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Separate the greens from the turnips; wash the turnips and cut into quarters. Rinse the greens and slice horizontally into wide strips.
  2. Melt the butter in a medium saucepan. When it starts to sizzle, add the turnips and sautee for about 3 minutes. Do not allow the turnips to brown.
  3. Add a small glass of water and cover the saucepan. Simmer the turnips until just tender, about 5 minutes.
  4. Uncover the saucepan and add the greens and a good pinch of salt. Cook for about 2 minutes more, until the greens just wilt.
  5. Add a few drops of lemon juice, to taste and serve sprinkled with the sesame salt.
