Bake peeled celeriac slices until tender, then top them with grated kashar and return the dish to the oven until the cheese melts and browns. Season the celeriac with olive oil, salt and pepper before baking.
Kashar is a Turkish semi-hard cheese, commonly made from cow’s milk, that melts well when heated. Its mild, savory flavor makes it a fitting topping for baked celeriac; mozzarella or a mild cheddar can work as substitutes.
No, you do not have to boil celeriac first for baked celeriac with kashar cheese. Thin, evenly cut slices can bake directly until tender, while briefly parboiling thicker pieces helps them soften before the cheese topping browns.
To slow browning, place peeled and cut celeriac in water with a little lemon juice while you prepare the other ingredients. Drain and dry the pieces before baking so excess moisture does not interfere with browning.
Yes, peel celeriac for baked celeriac with kashar cheese because its knobbly skin is tough and unpleasant to eat. Use a sturdy knife to remove the outer layer and any fibrous spots, then cut the flesh evenly.
Baked celeriac with kashar cheese tastes mildly sweet and earthy, with a soft, potato-like texture and a savory, melted-cheese topping. The flavor is gentler than raw celeriac, especially when seasoned with pepper and a little lemon.
Serve baked celeriac with kashar cheese with a crisp green salad, yogurt-based dip or roasted vegetables. It can also accompany grilled meat or beans, while a simple salad keeps the meal lighter and balances the rich cheese.
Yes, you can bake the celeriac ahead and add the kashar just before serving. Refrigerate the cooked celeriac in a covered container, then reheat it in the oven with the cheese on top until hot and melted.
Store leftover baked celeriac with kashar cheese in a covered container in the refrigerator and reheat it thoroughly before eating. The celeriac may soften further in storage, so reheating it in the oven helps the top regain some texture.
Yes, you can replace kashar in baked celeriac with kashar cheese with another cheese that melts well, such as mozzarella or mild cheddar. The result will taste different; choose a less salty cheese if you season the celeriac generously.

Baked celeriac with kashar cheese is a simple Turkish-style oven dish: pieces of celeriac are baked until tender, then topped with kashar, a mild Turkish cheese that melts and browns. The root has an earthy, gently aromatic flavour, while the cheese adds a savoury, creamy finish and a little crispness on top.
Serve it warm as a vegetable main or alongside roasted meat, with a fresh salad to balance its richness. Celeriac contributes fibre, while the cheese makes the dish more substantial and adds protein. For a lighter version, use just enough oil to coat the celeriac and keep the cheese topping thin.
