Corned Beef and Turnips
A classic dish of corned beef and turnips, cooked until tender and served with the cooking liquid.
Ingredients
- 1 pound Corned Beef
- 12 Turnips
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 8 cups Water
Instructions
- 1Place the corned beef in a large pot and cover with cold water. Bring slowly to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to a simmer.
- 2After the beef has simmered for about 1 hour (or 15 minutes per pound), add the peeled and quartered turnips to the pot.
