Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Peel, quarter and very thinly slice the celeriac - this is best done with the slicing blade of a food processor. Toss in the walnut oil, salt and pepper, and spread over a gratin dish. Pour over the stock and bake for 40-45 mins, then sprinkle with the walnuts, crumble over the cheese, then cook for 15 mins until crisp and golden.

RECIPE TIPS
MAKING IT DIFFERENT

Replace the celeriac with two peeled and sliced sweet potatoes and use a strong Swiss cheese.

Great quick recipe for a vegetable I had no idea what to do with. Roasting gives it a wonderful nutty flavour. To the walnuts, I added parma ham and grated emmental (we had no blue) and a dollop of crème fraîche. Yum!
