If you have a celeriac in the fridge, you almost certainly have just about everything you need for a very satisfying meal.

INGREDIENTS

1 celeriac
75ml olive oil
Salt

Topping suggestions:

Blue cheese sauce
Pesto
Salsa
Curry spice

METHOD

Heat the oven to 200c Fan.

Scrub a large celeriac well - there is no need to peel unless around the knobbly roots at the base.

With a sharp knife cut into steaks 1 ½ to 2cm thick.

Brush with olive oil and salt and place on a parchment lined baking tray in the oven.

Roast for half an hour, then baste and turn for a further 30 minutes.

That’s it, if it caramelises a bit, that’s good too.

We like to serve them with a blue cheese sauce but there are so many good ideas -try a nutty pesto and some pan fried gnocchi, a hot salsa, or sprinkle generously with curry powder before cooking and serve alongside some spiced lentils.

I think you will be surprised just how tasty and filling this is.
