Ingredients

1kg celeriac head, peeled and cut in chunks
500ml milk
200g unsalted butter, cut into cubes
Sea salt, pepper
Grated truffle, optional

Preparation

Place celeriac in a pan with the milk and water to just cover.

Add salt and cook until soft, testing with a knife.

Drain the celeriac, put back in the pan and mash, adding the butter piece by piece.

Season to taste and stir through truffle, if preferred.



Tip:
Philippe believes cooking in milk helps to retain celeriac’s beautiful pale colour.

Different paprikas

When using paprika make sure you are using the right variety for the dish you are cooking. The Spanish smoked paprika is ideal for paella, while the Hungarian sweet paprika is quite different in flavour and is ideal for their goulash.

Picking up dinner doesn’t mean dropping your standards. Partner Asian  takeaways with the intense hoppy character of a cold James Squire Pilsener and you can’t go wrong. But seek out a fuller flavour with a James Squire I.P.A. for bigger flavours like fiery Indian curries.
