Ingredients

2 pounds peeled turnips, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
12 ounces fresh turnip greens
8 ounces fully cooked country ham or 2 smoked ham hocks
1 medium onion, chopped
3 tablespoons sugar
1-1/2 teaspoons coarsely ground pepper
3/4 teaspoon salt
2 cartons (32 ounces each) chicken broth

Directions

1. In a 6-qt. electric pressure cooker, combine all ingredients. Lock lid; close pressure-release valve. Adjust to pressure-cook on high for 5 minutes. Allow pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick-release any remaining pressure.
2. If using ham hocks, remove meat from bones when cool enough to handle; cut ham into small pieces and return to pressure cooker. Serve greens with a slotted spoon.
