Baked Celery Root Fries image

Oven-roasted celeriac sticks are a lovely accompaniment to your main dish or even alone, just for a snack. The light celery flavor goes well with a spicy homemade ketchup. I tried two different methods to achieve the crispiest fries, and this was the one that I preferred. I served it with homemade harissa ketchup.

Time 45m

Yield 2

Number Of Ingredients 13

½ celeriac, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch sticks
1 tablespoon olive oil
salt and ground black pepper to taste
¼ cup tomato paste
2 tablespoons tomato sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
2 teaspoons harissa
2 teaspoons brown rice syrup
¼ teaspoon ground coriander
⅛ teaspoon garlic powder
⅛ teaspoon onion powder
1 pinch fine sea salt
1 teaspoon water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F (99 degrees C). Line a large baking sheet with aluminum foil and place in the oven to preheat.
  • Place celeriac in a bowl; drizzle olive oil over and season with salt and black pepper. Toss fries to coat evenly.
  • Remove baking sheet from the hot oven. Transfer fries to the baking sheet in a single layer with some space between them.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes.
  • While fries bake, combine tomato paste, tomato sauce, apple cider vinegar, harissa, brown rice syrup, coriander, garlic powder, onion powder, and sea salt in a small bowl. Stir to combine until smooth. Add water, 1/4 teaspoon at a time until desired consistency. Set ketchup aside.
  • Remove fries from oven and increase oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Flip fries and return baking sheet to the hot oven. Bake until crispy, about 15 minutes more.
  • Serve celery root fries with harissa ketchup.

I found these fries to be a bit bland. I would recommend adding more seasoning to the Parmesan cheese mixture.

These fries were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I would try them again with less oil or maybe even air frying them.

I wasn't sure what to expect with these fries, but I was pleasantly surprised. They were crispy and flavorful. I served them with a dipping sauce made from Greek yogurt, sour cream, and herbs.

These fries were easy to make and they turned out great! I used a mandoline slicer to cut the celery root into thin strips and they cooked evenly in the oven. I also added some garlic powder to the Parmesan cheese mixture for extra flavor.

I made these fries for a party and they were a hit! Everyone loved them. They're a great alternative to potato fries and they're much healthier.

These fries were amazing! I've never had celery root before, but I will definitely be buying it again. The fries were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside. I also loved the flavor of the Parmesan cheese and herbs.
