Ingredients
- 1 cup celeriac peeled volume/weight
- ½ large apple
- 2 slices bacon (streaky)
- 2 tablespoon pumpkin seeds (pepitas)
- ¼ cup chopped parsley
For the dressing
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon virgin olive oil
- 1 tablespoon walnut oil
- ¼ teaspoon Dijon mustard
Instructions
- Whisk together the lemon juice, oils and mustard for the dressing first so that it is ready to use.
- Peel the celeriac, removing all the outer layer and any dark, hairy indents. Peel and core the apple. Coarsely shred both and toss with the dressing to prevent browning.
- Cook the bacon as you prefer (eg under broiler, in oven/in pan - this can be done ahead) and cut into slices. Roughly chop the parsley.
- Add the bacon, pumpkin seeds and parsley to the apple and celeriac and toss to combine well. Serve.
Notes
You can use a few different kinds of apple in this but I suggest using a good flavored, sweet-tart eating apple with a good crispness such as honeycrisp, pink lady, Mcintosh or envy.
