I would gladly provide one, but my missus don't do Mince, neeps and tatties now.
Neeps must be mashed for max effect  
Knob of butter and milk through them, lovely

I used to eat them raw, just took the top off with a knife (Out of my pocket) and sliced a bit off the top.
Raw neep, lovely.

Till I found out you can get worms from raw neep!!!

Can't win them all

Mince is ground beef, and the neeps turn that colour when cooking, but they are the better for a bit of frost!

This is Cuban style mince meat...I add diced fried potatoes, diced tomatoes...and you have to have a side of black beans and sweet plantains...



I like it with diced onions...

Sorry Woody, in the words of Billy Connely, it only needs a handfull of diced carrots thrown on top to make it look like something left outside a pub on the pavement after closing time.

I have a way of cooking turnips (Neeps) that's a bit different.

You need to take all the skin off for this one.
Cut it into quarters, depending on size I suppose.

You are going to roast it in the oven.
I only use gas, so I'm not sure about electric settings.

Get a big bit of tin foil.
Put the quarters onto the foil.
Rub real butter, not margarine, over the quarters.
Then sprinkle some sugar over them, about two tablespoons worth.

Wrap the foil around them, put them on a baking tray.
Gas mark 6, in the centre of the oven. 20 to 30 mins.
Again depending on size.

The sugar mixes with the juices, and the butter helps the roasting effect.

Honestly, it's a really nice way to eat turnip.

INGREDIENTS
3 turnips, peeled and chopped
1 pound bacon
4 tablespoons rendered bacon fat
1/2 cup packed brown sugar

DIRECTIONS:
Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add turnips; cook until tender but still firm. Drain, and transfer to a large bowl to cool.
Place bacon in a large, deep skillet. Cook over medium high heat until evenly brown. Crumble and set aside. Reserve bacon fat.
In the large bowl, combine turnips, bacon, reserved bacon fat and brown sugar. Mix together and serve.


I got this from my Recipe file online...There seems to be alot a turnips recipes and most of them are from US....
