Ingredients

  • 5 small turnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch dice

  • 5 carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch dice

  • 2 parsnips, peeled and cut into 1-inch dice

  • 2 teaspoons white sugar

  • ¼ cup balsamic vinegar

  • salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

  1. Spread the turnips, carrots, parsnips, and sweet potatoes in a single layer into the bottom of a large skillet. Pour enough water over the vegetables to cover, but not completely submerge; add the sugar and balsamic vinegar. Place the skillet over medium-high heat; bring the liquid to a boil.
