Steps:
- Boil the potatoes for 20-25 mins until tender, adding the celeriac after 5 mins. Drain and press through a potato ricer back into the pan once the surface water has evaporated, or mash well with a potato masher in the dry pan.
- While the potatoes cook, melt the 140g butter over a medium heat, then sweat the spring onions for about 5 mins until soft and silky, stirring occasionally. Add the cream and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg. Bring to a simmer, then cook for another few mins until this thickens a little.
- Stir two-thirds of the creamy onions into the potato and celeriac purée. Season to taste. If making in advance, cover the surface of the mash and the sauce with cling film, then set aside. Can now be frozen or made up to a day ahead. Just before serving, gently reheat the mash and reserved sauce. Spoon the mash into a serving bowl, pour the sauce on top and turn it over a few times to loosely mix. Make a well in the centre and drop in the remaining knob of butter.

Tips:
- Choose the right celeriac: Look for a celeriac that is firm and has smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid any celeriac that is soft, spongy, or has brown spots.
- Peel the celeriac carefully: The celeriac's skin is thin and easy to peel, but it can be a bit slippery. Use a sharp knife to carefully peel the skin off of the celeriac, being careful not to cut yourself.
- Cook the celeriac until it is tender: Celeriac can be boiled, roasted, or steamed. No matter which method you choose, cook the celeriac until it is tender enough to easily pierce with a fork.
- Mash the celeriac with sweet potatoes: Once the celeriac is cooked, mash it with sweet potatoes until smooth. You can use a potato masher, a food processor, or a blender to mash the celeriac and sweet potatoes.
- Season the celeriac and sweet potato mash to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste. You can also add herbs, such as rosemary or thyme, to the mash for extra flavor.

Celeriac and sweet potato mash is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
