The easiest way to prepare turnips is to boil or steam them. If they're large, peel them and cut into wedges or one-centimetre thick half-moons. If they're small, the size of a golfball or less, then halve them or just keep them whole. Don't overcook.

Method 

Heat olive oil in a casserole and lightly fry turnips and sausages for 2 minutes, moving around constantly, until golden. Add wine and stir until totally evaporated. At this point turnips should be cooked but, if not, add a little water and evaporate. Add parsley, season lightly with salt and pepper, and stir well.
