Rate this recipe:- 10-15 Minutes
- 20-30 Minutes
- 6
- 50g Butter
- 1 Celeriac, peeled and cubed
- 1 Potato, peeled and cubed
- 1 Leek, trimmed, washed and roughly sliced
- 1 Onion, peeled and roughly chopped
- 1 Garlic clove, sliced
- 1 litre Stock, chicken, vegetable or made from the bones of your Christmas bird
- Parsley & walnut pesto to serve
Melt the butter in a large, heavy-based pot over a medium-low heat. Add the celeriac, leek, potato, garlic and onion, season generously, and gently sweat the vegetables until they're all starting to soften (this will take about 10 minutes).
Add the stock, bring the soup up to a boil, turn down the heat and simmer for about 20 minutes or until the celeriac is completely tender. Liquidise until smooth, return to the pan and reheat over a medium flame. Just before serving, check the soup for seasoning and serve with a drizzle of pesto.

Just made this soup Vegan Style!! And it is A-Mazzzzing! I also have the River Cottage Handbook No.3 - Bread, and I whipped up some Focaccia bread to serve with it, the best lunch we have had in ages!
To Vegan-ize it : we used dairy free Pure Sunflower Spread instead of butter
we used Knorr Vegetable Stock Pot
we also sprinkled in some fresh sage as mentioned above
served with Focaccia and Olive oil/Balsamic vinegar dip
This soup is sooooo easy, yet to die for! I made a batch yesterday morning which hubby and I had a bowl of... he then took the remainder to his relations and left me with none, so I had to go and buy another celeriac to make more soup or else I'd have nothing for lunch today at work! I added a little bit of fresh sage to the second batch. It's soooo yummy! My favourite soup at the moment!
fantastic soup , hearty mmmmmm
This soup is even easier made in my Thermomix. From start to finish all prepared and cooked then blended to utter smoothness in one TM bowl! Delicious and less washing up!
Thanks guys you saved the Celeriac from the copmpost bin, we have been growing them all year with the children , but what to do with them, last night was great, they will be on the seed list for next season. ( ps who is the young bloke under the mop of hair looks some what like HFW but younger) reminds us of the gastro bloke but younger??
