4 servings
- 2 medium celery roots (celeriac), about 2 lb total
- 1 tsp salt, plus more for the cooking water
- 3 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- ¼ cup unsweetened full-fat coconut milk
- ¼ tsp black pepper
Ingredient noteDried black pepper can sometimes contain mold toxins, but the trace amount used here is so small that it is likely tolerated by many. When possible, use a recently purchased organic spice and store it tightly closed in a cool, dry place. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
- 2 tbsp fresh chives, finely chopped (optional)
Instructions
- 1
Peel the celery roots and cut them into 1-inch cubes. Place in a large pot, cover with cold water by at least 1 inch, and add a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over high heat.
- 2
Reduce the heat to a steady simmer and cook until the celery root cubes are completely tender and a fork slides through without resistance, about 20–22 minutes. Drain through a colander and return the cubes to the pot.
