About

Like Fred and Ginger, the celeriac and the mushroom dance very well together. A class act for an evening’s entertainment... or lunch. Oh! And this is very delicious eaten entirely on its own.

Vegetarian

Method

Preheat the oven to 220°C/425°F/Gas 7.

Don’t prepare the celeriac until you want to use it, as, left sliced while you are distracted by Strictly Come Dancing or other weighty matters, it will discolour fast to punish you for loving it one minute and ignoring it the next.
