Notes

Chef's Tips:
• For extra crispiness, soak the cut turnips in cold water for 30 minutes before cooking to remove excess starch.
• Avoid overcrowding the air fryer basket to ensure even cooking and crispiness.
• Serve with your favorite dipping sauce for added flavor.
Food Safety:
• Ensure turnips are thoroughly washed before peeling and cutting.
• Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
