Method

  • step 1

    Fill a saucepan with 500ml water, the milk, a good pinch of salt and a grinding of black pepper, then bring to the boil. Add the turnips and potatoes and cook for 2 mins. Strain, drain well and pat dry.

  • step 2

    Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Butter a baking dish and rub the sides with garlic to just add a hint of flavour. Mix the cream and mustard in a large bowl, add the potatoes and turnip, mix until well coated and season really well. Layer into the baking dish, flattening the top level. Can be assembled and chilled a day ahead.

  • step 3

    Bake for 30-40 mins or until golden brown and the turnip and potato are cooked through – check with the point of a sharp knife.

I let the sliced turnips and potatoes soak in the well seasoned cold milk and water mixture for an hour (I believe the salt seasoning and the pepper flavour then infuses into the veg more) before putting on the heat to come to the boil relatively slowly (due to cooking on a Rayburn). Once boiling I…
