1 lg. clove garlic
1 lb. sm. turnips, peeled & sliced thin
2 tbsp. all-purpose flour
1/4 c. snipped chives or minced onions
1 1/4 c. heavy cream
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. freshly ground pepper
1/4 tsp. nutmeg

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Rub inside of small casserole (7 x 10) with cut garlic and butter well. Layer in 1/3 of the turnips, sprinkle with 1 tablespoon flour and 1/3 of the chives. Repeat with another layer of turnips, flour and chives, then top with the remaining turnips and chives. Heat the cream with the salt, pepper and nutmeg and taste to see if it needs more salt (some add sugar too). Pour over turnips, cover and bake for 30 minutes. Remove cover and continue baking about 20 minutes until done, cream is thickened and top browned.
