Turnip Gratin

Directions

1. 1
   Preheat the oven to 375°.
2. 2
   Start by peeling and thinly slicing the turnips and mincing the cloves of garlic. Grate about 2 cups of Gruyere cheese.
3. 3
   In a large oven-proof skillet, melt 2-3 tablespoons of butter over medium-low heat. Place a single layer of turnips on top of the butter.
4. 4
   Next, sprinkle a little of the garlic on top, then - and this is purely optional and really not all that necessary - add a couple of tablespoons of butter.
5. 5
   Next drizzle a healthy splash of chicken broth over the turnips. Next, do the same with the cream.
6. 6
   Now add a nice layer of Gruyere - about 1/2 cup. Sprinkle a bit of salt, but not much as the cheese is already salty.
7. 7
   Repeat these layers twice more. Sprinkle on some freshly ground black pepper.
8. 8
   Now pop the whole thing into the over and bake for about 20 minutes or until the top is hot, brown and bubbly.
