Danish Charred Turnips with Garlic Butter

Introduction

Grilled turnips never tasted this good! Using the Arteflame grill, we achieve a beautifully caramelized exterior while keeping the turnips tender and flavorful inside. Finished with garlic butter, these Danish charred turnips are the perfect side dish for any grilled meal.

Ingredients

  • 4 large Danish turnips, peeled and sliced into 1/2-inch rounds
  • 4 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp sea salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Vegetable oil (for lighting the grill)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Arteflame grill

  1. Pour vegetable oil onto three paper napkins and place them in the grill.
  2. Stack firewood over the napkins and light them.
  3. Allow the fire to burn for about 20 minutes until the flat cooktop reaches the optimal grilling temperature.

Step 2: Season the turnips

  1. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.
  2. Brush both sides of the turnip slices generously with the seasoned butter.

Step 3: Grill the turnips

  1. Place the turnip slices on the flat cooktop, closer to the center for a higher heat sear.
  2. Grill for 3-4 minutes on the first side until golden brown and caramelized.
  3. Flip and grill for another 3-4 minutes until tender.
  4. Brush with additional garlic butter while grilling.

Step 4: Garnish and serve

  1. Remove the turnips from the grill and transfer to a serving plate.
  2. Sprinkle with chopped parsley for a fresh finish.
  3. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips

  • For a deeper flavor, marinate the turnips in the garlic butter for 15 minutes before grilling.
  • Grilling turnips near the center of the Arteflame ensures a crispy outside while keeping the inside tender.
  • If you like extra caramelization, let the turnips sit untouched on the griddle for a minute before flipping.

Variations

  1. Spicy Chili Turnips: Add 1/2 tsp of crushed red pepper flakes to the butter mixture.
  2. Honey Glazed Turnips: Mix 1 tbsp of honey into the butter and baste the turnips during grilling.
  3. Herb Infused Turnips: Add 1/2 tsp of dried thyme and rosemary for an herby depth.
  4. Cheesy Garlic Turnips: Sprinkle freshly grated Parmesan over the turnips in the last minute of grilling.
  5. Balsamic Glazed Turnips: Drizzle balsamic glaze over the grilled turnips before serving for a tangy finish.

Conclusion

With its smoky, caramelized texture, these Danish charred turnips with garlic butter are a must-try on the Arteflame grill. Whether you're serving them as a side or a vegetarian main, their rich flavor will elevate any meal.
