I always see turnip in my supermarket but i never pick them. I have never tasted them in my entire life. Last week we went to our super market, i decided to grab couple of those. I came home and made a simple poriyal using that and it was delicious, it tasted healthy..
Hope you will give this a try and let me know how it turns out for you..
