Preparation
- Step 1
Place turnips in a saucepan. Cover with water and simmer gently over medium heat until tender, about 20 minutes. Meanwhile, pour the cream and chicken broth into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and simmer over medium heat until it thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Step 2
Brush a baking dish with the melted butter. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the turnips to the dish. Add the cream mixture. Season with salt and pepper and top with bread crumbs. Bake until golden brown, about 15 to 20 minutes. Serve immediately.

Comments
Instead of bread crumbs, use porchini mushrooms from the food processor. Lay out on a sheet and toast on broil to dry out. Add garlic and dijon to the heavy cream, and broth. Use a strong cheese (parmesan, asiago, etc) for richer flavor.
What oven temperature?
Modernizing a bit: - I use half sour cream half yogurt instead of the heavy cream - use veggie broth instead of chicken broth - I dice the turnip greens (if you have them) and mix it in to the casserole mixture - a bit of parmiggiano mixed with the bread crumbs and seasoning goes a long way to provide some umami (although I like the other comment's suggestion of porcinis, I haven't tried it, but will!) Also: oven at 400. Oven temp appears not to be listed in the recipe here.
Try 350
