Air Fryer Paleo Turnip Fries with Dijon Mustard

These turnip fries are a healthy and delicious alternative to traditional potato fries. They are made with just a few simple ingredients and can be cooked in the air fryer in just 15 minutes. The turnips are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and they are perfectly paired with Dijon mustard for dipping.

Turnip fries have been a staple in my diet for years. I first discovered them when I was living in Sweden, where they are a popular side dish. I was immediately drawn to their crispy texture and slightly sweet flavor. Over the years, I have experimented with different ways to make turnip fries, and this recipe is my favorite. It is simple to make, and the fries always turn out perfectly crispy and delicious.

Prep time: 15 | Cook time: 20 | Serves: 2

Ingredients

• 1 pound turnips, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch fries
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 teaspoon dried rosemary
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• Dijon mustard, for dipping

Instructions

Why It Works

• The turnips are cut into 1/2-inch fries, which is the perfect size for even cooking.
• The fries are tossed in a mixture of olive oil, rosemary, salt, and pepper, which gives them a delicious flavor.
• The fries are cooked in the air fryer at a high temperature, which helps them to crisp up quickly and evenly.
