Turnip Roast

Heat the oven to 500°F with the rack in the center. Use 1 medium to large turnip per person. Peel and cut each into 6 wedges. Rub on all sides with safflower oil—about 2 teaspoons for each turnip. Roast for about 30 minutes, shaking twice to turn the wedges. They will be lightly, spottily browned. Se
