Ingredients
- 1 celeriac (800 g – 1 kg)
- 1 tbsp olive oil (extra virgin)
- 1 tbsp paprika (smoked or sweet)
- salt & pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat the oven: Heat the oven to fan 200°C/400°F/GM 6.
- Prepare the celeriac: Cut the celeriac into half, then quarters, cut off the root and discard. Peel.
- Slice and chop: Cut the celeriac into slices about 1cm / 1/3 inch thick, cutting as evenly as you can. Chop each slice into chips.
- Coat with oil and paprika: Put the batons in a large roasting pan with the oil and paprika. Turn to coat each chip evenly. Do not add the salt at this stage.
- Arrange for roasting: Spread the celeriac chips out well, so that they have space to roast and crisp up. If you need to, split the batch between two trays, so that they are in a single layer with a little space around each.
- Roast: Cook in the oven for half an hour. After 15 minutes, turn the chips so that they will cook evenly.
- Season: Season with salt and pepper before serving.
Notes
- Try and cut the chips evenly. Save any offcuts in the freezer to add to soup and stews.
- Do make sure you spread your chips out to cook.
- Always salt at the end of cooking and not before.
