- 1 tbsp olive or canola oil
COOK’S TIPS
Celeriac keeps well – wrap the cut side and keep in the fridge.
- 1. Preheat the oven to 220°C/fan 200°C/Gas 7.
- 2. Cut all the vegetables into wedges, roughly 1.5–2cm wide and around 5–6cm long. They need to be similar sizes so they cook at roughly the same rate.
- 3. Place in a bowl, add the oil, a couple of pinches salt and lots of ground black pepper. Toss well together. Scatter the veg over a large baking tray and roast for 20 minutes.
- 4. Remove from the oven, turn the wedges and roast for a further 10 minutes, or until tender and lightly browned.
- 5. Serve with a high-protein, low-carb dish, or with simply grilled or roasted meat or fish.
