Have you discovered the vegetable, celeriac? It’s a large root vegetable that has a nutty and anise-like taste and it can be grilled, mashed, roasted, boiled or steamed. In this tasty recipe, the firm structure of celeriac makes it the perfect ingredient for a vegetarian steak.

After grilling, the celeriac will take on a delicious and sweet flavour that will be brought to life with a spicy Argentine Chimichurri. Chimichurri is a special sauce that’s usually served as a condiment with meat. The translation means “a mix of everything” and in this Chimichurri we’ve infused garlic, chilli, fresh parsley and oregano, olive oil and vinegar to create a spicy sauce that you can easily make yourself.

An extra tip: Make the Chimichurri a day earlier so the flavours have extra time to infuse.

 Celeriac steak:

Tips from the author

Serve with a fresh rocket salad and roasted potatoes.

You can add more chilli to the Chimichurri if you like it extra hot!
