I've had an Indian dish involving turnips that was quite good. It was a
real surprise to like it considering my usual tastes. The slight
sweetness of the turnip complemented the mild spices but I forget its
name. It might have been Masala Shalgam or Shalgam Korma. There is also
a mutton and turnip stew and most Indian turnip recipes are from the
north, Punjab.
