Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onions, diced potatoes, chopped apples, and diced celery root to the pot.
  3. Sauté the vegetables and fruit, stirring occasionally, until the onions become soft and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
  4. Pour in the stock and bring the mixture to a boil.
  5. Reduce the heat to low, cover partially, and simmer for about 40 minutes, or until all the vegetables are very tender and easy to pierce with a fork.
  6. Carefully blend the soup using an immersion blender until smooth, or transfer in batches to a standard blender and puree.
  7. Return the pureed soup to the pot if using a standard blender and reheat gently.
  8. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  9. Ladle into bowls and garnish with chopped fresh chives before serving.

Note

For a vegan version, ensure you use vegetable stock instead of chicken stock.

Celery root can be tough to peel; use a vegetable peeler or knife to remove the thick outer skin and any dark spots.

Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days. The soup may thicken as it cools; add a splash of stock or water when reheating to adjust consistency.

For a richer texture, you can stir in a splash of coconut milk or a knob of butter (or vegan butter) after blending.
