Ingredients

1 celeriac - 800 g – 1 kg
20 g butter
2 tbsp cream
salt and pepper
a few sprigs of parsley

Instructions

Wash and the celeriac and cut into quarters. Trim and discard the knobbly root end.
1 celeriac
Peel and roughly chop the quarters.
Place in a large saucepan of boiling water. Simmer for 20 minutes until soft and easily pierced with a knife.
Drain, and allow to dry in the colander or sieve for a couple of minutes.
Return to the hot saucepan and cut the chunks into smaller pieces. Add butter, cream and seasoning.
20 g butter, 2 tbsp cream, salt and pepper
Blend to a puree with a stick blender or using a food processor. If you prefer, use a traditional potato masher or a fork.
Chop up most of the parsley, saving some for garnish. I find the easiest way is to snip it with scissors inside a mug. Stir the parsley into the mash.
a few sprigs of parsley
Check the temperature. If you need to reheat the mash before serving, put the pan back on the hob and stir until you have the temperature you want.
Garnish with extra parsley and a little black pepper. Serve right away.
