Lunch Sunday 22 April - Celeriac & Potato Bake


Celeriac & Potato Bake
½ a celeriac (about 450g), cut into dice
same amount of white potatoes, cut into dice
½ red pepper, chopped (about 60g)
½ green pepper, chopped (about 60g)
1 pint vegetable stock
3 tablespoons cornflour
2 tablespoons single cream
65g grated Cheddar cheese

Steam the celeriac & potato dice for about 5 minutes, until they are just cooked.

Meanwhile make a cheesy veloute. Combine the veggie stock with the cornflour and bring to the boil, stirring all the while. Reduce heat and simmer for about 5 minutes, then add 3/4 of the grated cheese & all cream, stirring all the while until the cheese melts.

Ad the celeriac, potatoes and peppers to the sauce and combine. Season well with alt & plenty of pepper. Turn into a casserole dish and sprinkle the remainder of the cheese on top.

Bake in a moderate oven for about 35 minutes, until the top is browned & bubbling.

I had this with a bundle of fresh asparagus.
