Apple cider provides a depth of sweetness for this vegetable braise. Tender, buttery turnips and leeks are mixed with crumbled chestnuts and dried cherries for a wintry side.

Directions

Sauté 2 sliced leeks (light parts only) in 2 tablespoons butter in a large pot over medium heat until softened. Add 3 pounds turnips (peeled and cut into wedges) and 1/3 cup each apple cider and chicken broth; season with salt. Simmer, covered, 15 minutes. Stir in 1 cup crumbled cooked chestnuts, 1/2 cup each dried cherries and chopped parsley and 2 tablespoons butter.
