I tripled this recipe as I am bringing it to a larger Thanksgiving gathering. This is such a delicious way to use celery root which are still available at my local farmer’s market. It is a healthier substitute for mashed potatoes (if that’s your MO) 😉 I like it because it’s delicious!!!
Ingredients:
1 celery root
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup chicken (or any type) broth
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
Directions:
1. Use a vegetable peeler to peel the outer skin off the celery root. If needed, use a knife to cut off the heartier parts.
2. Once the rough outer layer is removed, cut into chunky pieces, about 2 inches long.
3. Heat olive oil over medium high heat.
4. Sauté the celery root chunks in the olive oil into golden brown, about 10 minutes.
5. Add the garlic, sauté for another minute.
6. Add the broth and salt and simmer for about five minutes.
7. Place in the food processor and process for about a minute.
8. Use a rubber spatula to scrape down the sides and add the sea salt.
9. Turn on the food processor and process until smooth or desired.
