Instructions
  1. Peel the turnips and cut them into thin slices. The base of turnips can be bitter, it is better to cut it more. Boil the turnips until tender in boiling salted water
  2. Melt 30 g of butter in a saucepan. Add flour, fry it in butter, stirring with a spatula, until golden brown and nutty taste.
  3. Gradually pour in the warmed cream and milk. You can only use milk, but I wanted to make the taste even more creamy. Cook, stirring with a whisk, until the sauce becomes homogeneous. Salt to taste
  4. Put one layer of turnips in the mold, pour the sauce over it, then another layer of turnip sauce and again, and so on – until you run out of ingredients. The top layer should be the sauce.
  5. In the bowl of a blender, put a little dried loaf without crusts, coriander, lemon zest and grind into crackers. I prefer not very small.
  6. Sprinkle the gratin with fragrant breadcrumbs and a finely chopped slice of cheese. Cut 10 g of butter into slices and put it on top of the gratin.
  7. Bake the gratin for about 10-15 minutes – until golden brown, at a temperature of 220 * C, top-bottom + 180 degrees.
