2694. RUTABAGAS with BACON and ONION

2 slice bacon, fat retained
1/2 medium onion
1 rutabaga
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon sherry

Peel rutabaga (with a vegetable peeler, like a potato) and cut into pieces about 1/2" X 1/4". Fry bacon in a medium sauce pan. When crisp remove and drain all but 1 tablespoon fat. Add onion and sauté until tender, about 5 minutes. Add rutabaga, 1/2 cup water and bacon. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat and simmer 15 - 20 minutes. Test for doneness. When done, drain any remaining liquid, stir in butter, sherry and serve.
