Our cheesy gratin makes a fabulous accompaniment to a Sunday roast. Crème fraîche is a lighter, lower-fat alternative to double cream
Prepare to the end of step 2 a few hours ahead. The gratin will need a little longer to reheat the turnips.
Bring a pan of water to the boil and attach a steamer or set a colander into the pan. Put the turnips in the steamer, cover with a lid and steam-cook for 20-25 minutes until tender. Allow to steam-dry for a few minutes, then transfer to a 1-litre ovenproof baking dish. Heat the grill to medium-high.
Mix the crème fraîche, cheese, rosemary and mustard in a bowl and season well. Spoon this over the turnips and spread out on top. Scatter the extra grated cheese over the gratin.
