Turnip greens are the young harvested leaves of the Chinese cabbage or May turnip. A ‘forgotten vegetable’ that deserves a revival! Combine this turnip frittata with broad beans, Dutch cheese and white wine vinegar and you won’t know what you’ll experience. Tip: extra delicious with pieces of briefly blanched green asparagus!
portions 4 persons
Ingredients
- 250 g broad beans freezer
- 12 Eggs
- 50 ml cream
- 3 spring onions finely chopped
- 2 woods turnip greens roots removed
- 400 g Dutch white in cubes of 1 x 1 cm, or buffalo mozzarella
- 2 shallots in thin half rings
- 2 el elderberry blossom or white wine vinegar
- 5 el olive oil extra virgin
- 200 g spinach
- sourdough croutons* for it
Instructions
-
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Boil the broad beans ± 2 min. in boiling water with salt.
-
Beat the eggs and cream in a bowl and add salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the spring onion. Divide the turnip greens over a greased baking dish and divide the broad beans over it. Pour the egg mixture over it and sprinkle the cheese on top. Place the oven dish in the middle of the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown and done.
-
Let the shallot marinate in a bowl with the vinegar for 5 minutes. Add the oil and season the dressing with salt and pepper. Toss together the spinach and dressing in a large bowl and serve with the frittata. Delicious with sourdough croutons.
Notes
* Make sourdough croutons yourself: cut slices of sourdough bread into cubes, drizzle with olive oil and bake (at the same time as the frittata) in the oven for 10-15 minutes.

turnip stew with chorizo and olives
By tossing the turnip greens through the warm puree at the end, the fresh green stems retain their tasty snap. Janneke often uses whole milk instead of crème fraîche for stew. That gives just such a creamy taste.
