Celery Root Au Gratin Recipes

Steps:

• Combine 1 bunch sliced celery, 1 teaspoon salt, and water to cover in a medium skillet. Bring to a boil; reduce the heat to medium low and cook until most of the liquid is absorbed. Push the celery to one side of the skillet. Add 2 tablespoons each butter and flour and 1/4 teaspoon each nutmeg and pepper to the other side; cook, stirring, 3 minutes. Add 2 cups milk; cook, stirring all of the ingredients together, until creamy. Season with salt and pepper. Mix 1/2 cup breadcrumbs, 3 tablespoons grated parmesan, 3 chopped scallions and 2 tablespoons chopped parsley; sprinkle over the celery mixture and broil until golden.

Steps:

• Trim and peel celery root. Cut in three-fourth-inch cubes, placing them in a bowl of water as you proceed.
• Combine in saucepan with broth, milk, water, savory and one teaspoon salt; liquid should not quite cover. Gently simmer, covered, until barely tender -- about 10 minutes.
• With a slotted spoon transfer cubes to buttered shallow baking dish of one-and-a-half quart capacity. Strain and reserve liquid. Heat butter in rinsed-out saucepan. Add flour; stir on low heat until golden. Add one-and-a-half cups cooking liquid. Whisk over moderate heat until liquid boils.
• Sprinkle nutmeg on celery root. Season sauce with salt and pepper to taste; pour over cubes. Sprinkle cheese to cover evenly. Bake in center of preheated 350-degree oven for about 35 minutes, until lightly browned and bubbly.

Steps:

• Cut any thick celery stalks in half, trim all of it into thumb-size lengths, then wash and leave wet. Melt half the butter in a large frying pan, then add the celery, onion and bay leaves. Season, cover, then cook over a medium heat for about 30 mins, stirring occasionally to stop the onions catching.
• Meanwhile, prepare the breadcrumbs. Melt the remaining butter in a separate pan, then toss in the crumbs and walnuts, stirring often until lightly golden and toasted. Set aside.
• Heat grill to medium. When the celery is tender, turn the heat right up, pour in the wine and stock, then reduce by two-thirds. Pour in the cream, then reduce for a final few mins until you have a syrupy sauce. Check seasoning, tip into an ovenproof dish, then scatter with the breadcrumbs and Parmesan. Grill for 2-3 mins, until the sauce bubbles. Let it sit for 5 mins before serving.
