Celery root stew with lemon is made by gently cooking peeled, chopped celeriac with onion and usually carrot in olive oil, then seasoning it with lemon juice. Keep the pieces in lemon water while preparing them to slow browning, and simmer until tender.
The usual ingredients in celery root stew with lemon are celeriac, onion, olive oil, and lemon juice. Carrot is a common addition; some versions also include potato, peas, celery leaves, or a little sugar to balance the tartness.
Celery root stew with lemon can be served warm, at room temperature, or chilled. Turkish olive-oil versions are often served cool as part of a meze-style meal, sometimes finished with fresh lemon and celery leaves.
Yes, orange juice or slices can go into celery root stew with lemon. Orange gives the dish a softer, slightly sweet citrus flavor, so reduce the lemon if you want to keep the stew from becoming too tart.
For celery root stew with lemon, cut away the thick, knobbly skin with a sharp knife and remove any tough or indented spots. Put the peeled, cut pieces straight into water with lemon juice to help keep them from browning.
Celeriac can brown after it is peeled or cut because its flesh reacts with air. For celery root stew with lemon, keep prepared pieces submerged in lemon water until you are ready to cook them, then drain before adding them to the pot.
Celery root stew with lemon goes well with rice, bulgur, or other vegetable dishes. For a light meal, serve it with bread and yogurt; for a plant-based spread, pair it with a salad or another olive-oil vegetable dish.
Celery root stew with lemon keeps for about three days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Let it cool before storing, and take out only the portion you plan to serve rather than leaving the whole dish at room temperature.
Yes, celery root stew with lemon can be frozen, although the celeriac and other vegetables may be softer after thawing. Cool and portion the stew into airtight containers, thaw it in the refrigerator, and reheat it thoroughly before serving.
To make celery root stew with lemon less tart, add lemon juice gradually and taste as you cook. A little orange juice or extra cooked carrot can soften the sharpness; adding salt alone will not remove the sour flavor.

Celery root stew with lemon is a Turkish home-style dish, usually made by gently cooking chunks of celeriac with olive oil and lemon. Carrot and sometimes potato are common additions, while the lemon gives the tender vegetables a fresh, tangy finish. It belongs to the broader tradition of Turkish olive-oil vegetable dishes.
It is often served warm or at room temperature, as part of a meal or alongside other vegetable dishes; leftovers are also good chilled. With 2.4 g of fibre per 100 g, it makes a light, vegetable-forward plate rather than a protein-centred main. Pair it with bread, rice or yogurt, or keep it lighter by using a measured amount of oil and adding extra lemon and herbs.
