To make celery root stew with peas, sauté chopped onion, celery root and carrot in olive oil, then add peas, water and lemon juice. Simmer until the vegetables are tender, and let the stew rest briefly before serving so the flavors come together.
Celery root stew with peas is commonly made with celery root, peas, carrot, onion, olive oil and lemon. Some versions include potato, dill or celery leaves. The vegetables and lemon give the stew its characteristic fresh, savory flavor.
Put peeled, chopped celery root in water with lemon juice as you prepare celery root stew with peas. Exposure to air can discolor the cut surface, and the acidic water helps slow that browning; drain the pieces just before cooking.
Yes, celery root stew with peas can be served cold, especially when made in the olive-oil style. Let it cool, then serve it with a little dill if you like; it can also be eaten warm as a vegetable side or light meal.
Serve celery root stew with peas with rice, crusty bread, a simple salad or yogurt. Its lemony, vegetable-forward flavor pairs well with uncomplicated sides, while heavy sauces can overwhelm the delicate taste of the celery root.
Yes, celery root stew with peas can be made ahead and refrigerated once cooled. Resting gives the vegetables time to absorb the olive oil and lemon flavors; serve it chilled or reheat only the portion you plan to eat.
Yes, celery root stew with peas can be frozen, although the vegetables may become softer after thawing. Cool it first, store it in a sealed freezer-safe container, and thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating thoroughly.
Yes, peel celery root before using it in celery root stew with peas. Its rough, knobby skin is tough, so trim it away with a sturdy knife or peeler, then rinse the peeled root before cutting it into pieces.
Yes, potatoes are a suitable addition to celery root stew with peas. Cut them into small, even pieces so they cook alongside the celery root; they make the stew heartier and can give its broth a thicker texture.
Celery root stew with peas keeps for about three days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Chill it promptly after cooking, and take out only the portion you need rather than repeatedly leaving the whole dish at room temperature.

Celery root stew with peas is a home-style Turkish vegetable dish, typically made by gently cooking celeriac and peas with onion, carrot, olive oil and a little water. It belongs to the tradition of zeytinyağlı dishes—vegetables cooked with olive oil—and recipes may also include celery stalks and lemon. The peas bring a mild sweetness, while the celeriac turns tender and gives the dish its distinctive, earthy aroma.
Serve it warm or chilled, with a squeeze of lemon and bread, or alongside rice. Its vegetables provide fibre, making it a filling but light choice for lunch or a simple supper. For a lighter version, use olive oil sparingly and add the lemon just before serving.
