Adapted from http://projects.eveningedge.com/recipes/speedy-sauteed-hakurei-turnips-and-greens/
Hands on time: 10 minutes Total time: 20 minutes Serves: 4
Ingredients:
1 large bunch hakurei turnips with greens, or 2 smaller bunches
1/2 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 tablespoon butter
salt and pepper to taste
1/4 cup white wine
Instructions:
Rinse the turnips and greens well. Cut the greens from the turnips and chop into 2-inch pieces. Trim any straggly roots from the turnips and discard. Cut the turnips into quarters or eighths, depending on size.
In a sauté pan with a lid, heat the olive oil and butter. Add the turnips, sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper, and sauté until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. If you like them crisp -tender, remove the turnips from the pan. Otherwise, to soften the turnips, leave them in while you cook the greens.

Add the greens to the pan, along with any moisture still clinging to the leaves. Cover the pan and allow the greens to cook, stirring once or twice, until just tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the white wine and cook until almost all the liquid is gone. If you removed the turnips, now return them to the pan; cook 1 to 2 minutes to heat through. Serve immediately.
