Celeriac steak with mash and gochujang sauce 1 HOUR + MARINATING | SERVES 4 | EASY | LC

Slow-roasted celeriac has a wonderful ‘meaty’ bite and a unique mellow flavour. I like to score the surface of each ‘steak’ before marinating to make sure it really soaks up flavour when cooking. This also helps the roasted celeriac to crisp and caramelise on the outside while staying beautifully tender inside. The sauce matches Korean gochujang (a delicious fermented chilli paste with a moreish savoury flavour) with soy milk for a velvety smooth, umami twist on a classic steak sauce. Be sure to pick a large, fresh celeriac, ideally without too many visible roots, to guarantee nice round celeriac steaks.
