Vegan Ginger-Lime Celeriac Fries
Celeriac might not be the first vegetable you reach for, but once you roast it into golden, tender fries, it earns a permanent spot in your rotation. The batons get tossed in melted coconut oil with fresh ginger, lime zest, lime juice, and a pinch of turmeric before hitting a screaming-hot oven — and the result is something genuinely exciting. That combination of bright citrus, warming ginger, and earthy turmeric creates a flavor that feels bold and a little unexpected for a side dish. Spacing the pieces out on the baking sheet is the key move here, letting the oven do its roasting magic instead of steaming everything into mush. A final scatter of fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime over the top pulls it all together beautifully. Every single ingredient in this recipe is completely plant-based, so there's nothing to swap or second-guess — just straightforward, vibrant cooking from start to finish.
