Shave off the tough skin of the celeriac until reaching the white flesh.

Coarsely grate the celeriac into about 3 cups and transfer into a mixing bowl.

Squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon over the grated celeriac and mix well to coat.

Finely chop 1/2 bunch of fresh dill and 10 - 15 leaves of fresh mint, then add to the bowl.

Add 1 cup of roughly chopped walnuts to the mixture, saving some for garnish.

Mash 150 g of white cheese / feta cheese with a fork.

In a separate bowl, combine 250 g of strained yogurt and the mashed cheese, then whisk for a creamier texture.

Crush 2 garlic cloves with a bit of salt and check the saltiness of the cheese, adjusting as necessary.

Combine the garlic mixture with the yogurt and cheese in a large bowl, mashing and mixing until well combined.

Add the celeriac mixture into the yogurt and gently mix until all ingredients are coated.

Transfer to a serving plate and garnish with walnuts, fresh dill, lemon zest, and a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil.
