Chips - Potato versus Butternut Squash versus Celeriac

[Drummer]

I find that the easiest way to peel it is to slice right through with a big sharp knife and then to peel the individual slices with a small sharp knife - but I am a demon for sharp knives - they are far safer than blunt ones.

That's what I do.🙂 We haven't had Celeriac for a while as the wife is bored of it. Must admit, I did go over the top, making celeriac chips, celeriac mash. celeriac gratin.....

Going to try celeriac chips tonight, never tried them before. I used to just make celeriac soup, so many possibilities now.

Thanks for this tip, definitely something to try. I am sure I will like them, the acid test will be if I can persuade my OH as I Don’t want any more dishes that only I will eat: too much faff!

That was fairly successful and I know what to do next time to make it better! I followed Trophywench’s method but wasn’t sure whether the thickness was right. The result was tasty but sadly not crisp or brown enough despite doubling the cooking time. Since Mr Radders had turned up with his fish & chips I couldn’t leave them any longer. I think I should have started off with the oven on a much higher temperature. The other half of the celeriac is prepared and ready in the freezer so I will be repeating the experiment before too long.

Thanks for the tip, Dave. 🙂 The shops’ll run out of celeriac with ev1 on here buying it (or not @wirralass LOL).

I've personally never cooked with Fennel. Wife has used it. She puts it in salads, but wrong time of the year for that now.

Edit. Here you go.🙂
