cup
+ 1/4 cup heavy cream
1/3
cup
+ 1.5 tbsp unfiltered apple juice
1
tbsp
Dijon mustard
1.5
lbs
turnips
6
strips of pancetta
Salt & pepper
Instructions
Preheat the oven at 400°F.
Peel and slice the turnips.
Pour the cream and apple juice in a large saucepan, bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer for about 2 minutes. Add salt, pepper and the mustard.
Put the turnip slices in the juice-cream mixture (stirring to coat all pieces, if needed) and cook for another 5 minutes.
Cut the pancetta in small pieces, and sauté in a non-stick frying pan for a few seconds.
Pour the turnip / cream / apple juice mixture in a baking dish. Sprinkle with the pieces of pancetta.
Bake for about 25-30 minutes, until the gratin is golden on top.
Notes
Age for babies: 8-10 months, the turnip can be given as finger food, cut up in small pieces (though I wouldn't give baby any pancetta)
