Turnips in Sauce
- Turnips
- 1 heaping Tbsp butter
- 2 tsps flour
- Salt

Pare the turnips and cut them in small pieces about the size and thickness of a kidney bean. Lay them in cold water for about an hour, then place them in boiling water. Cook for about half an hour or until tender. Drain. Dry them slightly by leaving them on the back of the stove for a few minutes while you prepare the sauce.
Melt the butter in a saucepan. Slowly stir in the flour and a little salt. Add milk. Let it boil up, stirring all the time until it thickens. Pour over the turnips. Shake the turnips well in it but do not stir them. Let it boil up.
Turn into a covered vegetable dish and serve proudly with roast or boiled mutton.
