Method

  1. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Peel, quarter and very thinly slice the celeriac - this is best done with the slicing blade of a food processor. Toss in the walnut oil, salt and pepper, and spread over a gratin dish. Pour over the stock and bake for 40-45 mins, then sprinkle with the walnuts, crumble over the cheese, then cook for 15 mins until crisp and golden.

Making it different

Replace the celeriac with two peeled and sliced sweet potatoes and use a strong Swiss cheese.

    This went stunningly well with the ducklegs. Really really lovely.

    Lovely! Made a chinese version by replacing the oil with soy sauce and the curry powder with chinese five spice. Really great - and much lower fat.

    I've made this twice now. Not quite satisfied with texture. I reduced the stock the second time but it was still not crispy/creamy enough. Next time I shall try it with creme fraiche and report back! Much better flavour the next day.

    I'm very interested in recipes for celeriac, as I've discovered it is low in carbs and extremely versatile. Liked the combination of ingredients in Celeriac and Walnut Gratin.

    Nice combination of flavours but would definitely try with cream or creme fraiche or reduce amount of stock. Not in a hurry to try it again

    The vegetable stock is definitely not the right "juice" for this recipe which is a lovely combination of ingredients otherwise.

    I agree - would have been better with creme fraich or similar - too much liquid

    Great quick recipe for a vegetable I had no idea what to do with. Roasting gives it a wonderful nutty flavour. To the walnuts, I added parma ham and grated emmental (we had no blue) and a dollop of crème fraîche. Yum!
