1 serving (medium) of Celery Stew with Orange (180 g) has 99 calories. That works out to 55 calories per 100 g. It contains 15.7 g of carbs, 2 g of protein, 3.8 g of fat and 4.9 g of fiber. Its 576 µg of Vitamin A covers 64% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 35 (low), so it raises blood sugar slowly.
Celery stew with orange takes its cue from Turkish zeytinyağlı cooking: chunks of celeriac are gently cooked with olive oil and orange juice, often with onion and carrot. The leafy tops may be added as a garnish. It is usually served warm or at room temperature, as part of a Turkish home meal alongside rice, bread or other vegetable dishes; it also works as a small meze. The celeriac becomes tender while the citrus gives the glossy sauce a lightly sweet, tangy edge. This is a mostly vegetable-based dish with useful fibre, rather than a substantial source of protein. Pair it with beans or lentils for a more filling meal, or serve it with a crisp salad.

Celery Stew with Orange is made by gently cooking chopped celeriac with olive oil, onion and usually carrot, then adding orange juice and water. Simmer until the celeriac is tender, and let the stew rest before serving so the flavors settle.
Celery Stew with Orange is traditionally made with celeriac, also called celery root, rather than the crisp stalks used in salads. Its firm, knobbly root softens into tender pieces while holding its shape during cooking.
Yes, Celery Stew with Orange can be served cold or at room temperature. It is often prepared as a Turkish-style olive-oil dish and tastes especially balanced after resting, when the orange and olive oil have infused the celeriac.
Serve Celery Stew with Orange with rice, bulgur, crusty bread or a simple salad. These mild sides complement its citrus flavor without overpowering it; plain yogurt is another option if you do not need the meal to be dairy-free.
To keep the celeriac in Celery Stew with Orange from browning, place cut pieces in water with a little lemon juice while you prepare the rest. Drain them just before cooking, since exposure to air can darken the cut surface.
Yes, Celery Stew with Orange is a good make-ahead dish. Cook it, cool it promptly and refrigerate it in a covered container; the flavors meld as it rests, so serve it cold or gently reheat it when needed.
Yes, you can freeze Celery Stew with Orange, although the celeriac may become softer and release water after thawing. Cool the stew first, freeze it in an airtight container, and thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating.
Yes, plain bottled orange juice works in Celery Stew with Orange, but choose juice without added sugar so the dish does not become overly sweet. Freshly squeezed juice gives a brighter citrus aroma; avoid adding a lot of bitter white pith.
To keep Celery Stew with Orange from tasting bitter, use fresh orange juice and avoid cooking orange peel or the white pith in the pot. Balance the citrus with the olive oil, and taste the cooking liquid before adding more orange.
Celery Stew with Orange keeps for about three days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it once it has cooled, and take out only the portion you plan to serve; it can be enjoyed chilled or reheated gently.
