Boiled celery, potato and carrot with yogurt is a simple Turkish-style home dish: celery root, potatoes and carrots are cooked until tender, then served with yogurt, either mixed through or spooned over. The vegetables bring gentle sweetness, while the yogurt adds a cool, tangy contrast.
It works well chilled or at room temperature as a light lunch side or part of a shared spread, alongside grilled fish, legumes or other vegetable dishes. With fibre from the vegetables and little fat, it makes a lighter choice; use plain yogurt and keep the seasoning simple to let the celery’s distinctive flavour come through.
