Ingredients

1/4	celeriac, sliced	160 g

Before you start

A food mill or a potato ricer will be very useful to purée the vegetables. A food processor cannot give the proper texture.

Method

Prepare the vegetables: Peel the celeriac than cut it intl slices. Do not peel the potatoes. Boil or steam until very tender, about 20-25 min. Drain well and peel.
Meanwhile, in a microwave-safe bowl, pour in the milk* with butter and microwave on medium-high for a couple tens of seconds until hot.
Pass the vegetables through a food mill, then put the purée back into the pot used to cook the vegetables. Pour in the butter-milk mixture, then add salt and pepper to taste. Blend well using a spatula.
Reheat and serve warm.

Remarks

* Add more or less milk depending on how creamy you like your purée.
