Whole Baked Celeriac - The Perfect Meal | VEG HACKS

Preheat the oven to 150 degrees Celsius (gas mark 2).

Take a roasting tray to catch any mess.

Ensure the celeriac is relatively clean.

Smear Dijon mustard all over the celeriac to help the salt stick.

Sprinkle flaky sea salt over the celeriac and rub it in, ensuring it covers the surface well.

Place the celeriac in the oven and bake for about 2 to 3 hours until soft all the way through.

After baking, the celeriac should look slightly dehydrated but not burnt.

Cut away the top and bottom of the celeriac, then remove the skin from the sides.

Chop the celeriac in half and cut it into thick steak-like pieces.

Heat some oil in a pan and fry the celeriac pieces for about 3 to 4 minutes on each side until golden brown.

Finish with a squeeze of lemon juice and a couple of turns of black pepper before serving.
