Ingredients
- 500 g white turnips, peeled and diced (1–1.5 cm)
- 500 g new potatoes, peeled and diced (1–1.5 cm)
- 3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
- 1 medium onion, finely diced

Method
-
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add turnips and potatoes, cook for 3 minutes. Drain thoroughly.
-
In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook, stirring, until just softened (about 3 minutes).

Add garlic, thyme, salt, and red pepper flakes. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
