Celery Free Ginger-Lime Celeriac Fries

Celeriac is the unsung hero of the root vegetable world, and roasting it at high heat transforms it into something genuinely crave-worthy — crispy-edged, tender in the middle, and packed with flavor. These fries get coated in a bright, punchy mix of fresh ginger, lime zest, lime juice, and turmeric before hitting a hot oven, so every bite carries a little warmth and citrusy zing. Coconut oil helps the batons roast rather than steam, giving you those golden edges that make fries worth eating in the first place. The key move is spreading them in a single layer with space between each piece — don't skip that step or you'll lose the caramelization that makes this dish so satisfying. Despite the bold flavor profile, the ingredient list is refreshingly short and entirely free from celery stalk or celery seed, which can sneak into spice blends and store-bought snacks in ways that are hard to track. A scatter of fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime at the end ties everything together and keeps it feeling fresh off the sheet pan. These are the kind of fries that disappear fast, so consider making a double batch.
