1

Start by pan-frying the bacon in a large skillet over medium heat for about 5 minutes until it's crispy. Remove the bacon and set aside.

2

In the same skillet, leave about 1 tablespoon of bacon fat and add 1 tablespoon of oil, if needed.

3

Add minced garlic and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.

4

While the garlic is sautéing, peel and thinly slice the turnips. Add them to the skillet and stir-fry for 8-10 minutes until they are tender and slightly caramelized.

5

As the turnips cook, chop the green onions and add them to the skillet along with the bacon.

6

Pour in the soy sauce and sprinkle chili flakes, stirring everything together for an additional 2-3 minutes.

7

Once well mixed and heated through, remove from heat and serve hot.
