I got a nice celeriac in last week’s veggie box, and used 3/4 of it for a soup, reserving the other 1/4 for a salad. The soup was to die for. Just what I needed with a cold so bad it’s coming out my eyes.
Method and Ingredients
Preheat a heavy bottomed pot
chop 4 medium cloves of garlic and one small onion
add a little oil to the hot pan
toss in the onion and garlic, and 1 bay leaf, and reduce temperature
chop the celeriac into 1/2 inch cubes, and add to pan
chop 2 medium carrots, and add to pan
stir all together, add some freshly ground pepper and a dash of salt, cover with a lid, and leave to cook for about 10 minutes over low heat, stirring occasionally to prevent burning
after about 10 minutes there should be some juice coming, stir and gradually add boiled water, to just cover the veg.
cover and leave to simmer for about 30 minutes
whizz with a hand-held blender, adding about 1/2 cup semi-skimmed milk* and serve.
Try it. It is to die for.
*Vegans replace with chosen dairy substitute. Unflavored soy would be nice.

Yummy! This must pack a punch.
It definitely does. All that celeriac – yet it’s nicer than celery soup.
