Veg box celeriac, beetroot ideas please

[noodledoodler]

Love a good veg box and have been on a few of these threads, also looked back at previous threads for ideas but nothing suitable so please, help me make something delicious from my 2 celeriac and 6 betroot before they wither away to nothing in my fridge. Open to combining the two and I also have some lovely big ripe tomatoes if they could go with them as well. Freezable portions would be a bonus

NB the zombie brains recipe is totally straightforward. No faffing about.

Ha, the kids would appreciate the zombie brains

This is the one!

Venus I'm not sure whether I should make that or worship at its altar, it looks like comfort food of the highest order and will be going on the menu for sure

I learnt to love beetroot with two Jane Grigson recipes from her classic Vegetable Book. Both start with cooked beetroot - I bake and then peel.

In one you fry onion in butter, add chopped beetroot and as much chopped apple and then stew it down to a pulpy sort of consistency, season with nutmeg. In the other, layer the beetroot with cheese and cream, top with breadcrumbs and bake.

Ha ha yes it really is! We often have it at Christmas.

Roast the beetroots in salt, pepper & little olive oil then blend to make a pasta sauce. Super tasty! Serve with feta or similar.

There are several different celeriac and apple salad recipes. Love them.

Great ideas. I like beetroot chopped up in salad, goes well with feta cheese too in a tart.

Ooh I never would have thought of using beetroot for a pasta sauce but that would defo go down well in my house. I must get some feta, I had a few packs at the start if lockdown but all gone now 😞

You can make celery salt with the celeriac. Grate, mix with the same weight of salt, bake in a slow oven until dried out, grind it together in a mortar and pestle.

Yellredder, anything fried in butter gets my vote 😉

What kind of apple works best? I always have a lot of pink ladies in though in autumn my tree gives some tangier braeburns (for future boxes lol)

I've recently been fascinated with the idea of beetroot bourgignone (but haven't made it!)

Could do it with a celeriac mash?

We made this a few days ago- with shop bought meatballs rather than homemade. It was delicious.

Those meatballs, Yes, going on the menu

Ooh! I’ll be trying out those beetroot burgers- the ones from the M&S vegan range are delicious so I’ve been looking for something like that

Make cake with beetroot. I have tried it and it was a fabulous texture although I put too much ginger in.

Celeriac I just do the same as potato. The best is the remoulade /coleslaw though.

I make a very good curry with beetroot,celeriac, potatoes, parsnips and carrots.

This coleslaw recipe is amazing and goes really well with pulled pork

Help if I added the recipe! www.bbcgoodfood.com/recipes/autumn-coleslaw

Loving all of the ideas so far, thank you, really open to trying out new recipes
