Pork and turnips are a very popular combination in Cajun culture. In fact, turnips work very well with beef, wild game and chicken. It is so Atkins friendly, you could have it every day.
 
Ingredients
3 pounds lean pork short ribs 6 cups peeled and sliced turnips
1/2 large onion chopped 1/2 - 1 cup water for smothering the pork
salt and red pepper for the pork salt, black pepper, for the turnips
1 tsp sugar for turnips 1/2 cup water for turnip addition
 
Directions
Season the ribs with salt and red pepper. In a medium sauce pan, brown the ribs in a small amount of oil. Cook until almost tender, adding small amounts of water each time the ribs start to sizzle (this is called smothering in Cajun lingo).
Season the turnips with salt, black pepper and and the sugar. Add the turnips, chopped onion and 1/2 cup water to the pork ribs. Continue cooking over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the turnips are tender. Serve with cooked rice or eat as is.

Note that wild duck can be used instead of pork.
