To make celery stew without oil, simmer chopped celeriac and other vegetables with a little water until tender. Onion, carrot, potato, and lemon are common additions. Stir occasionally and add small splashes of water if the vegetables begin sticking.
Celery stew without oil is usually made with celeriac, onion, carrot, and sometimes potato or peas, plus water, lemon, and seasoning. Recipes vary, but this Turkish-style dish uses the celery root rather than relying on celery stalks as its main ingredient.
Yes, celery stalks can be used in celery stew without oil, but the result will be different from the Turkish celeriac-based dish. Stalks cook faster and have a lighter texture, so add them later than firm root vegetables and reduce the cooking time.
To keep celeriac from browning while preparing celery stew without oil, put the cut pieces straight into water with lemon juice. Drain them before cooking. This limits discoloration and adds a little brightness to the finished stew.
Celery stew without oil can be served either warm or chilled. Let it cool before refrigerating if you prefer it cold; lemon and any orange added to the recipe often taste more pronounced after chilling.
Celery stew without oil pairs well with bread, rice, or bulgur, and a side of yogurt if dairy suits your meal. For a more substantial plate, serve it with beans, lentils, or another protein-rich dish.
Yes, celery stew without oil can be frozen, though celeriac and potato may turn softer after thawing. Cool it first, freeze it in airtight portions, and thaw it in the refrigerator before reheating until steaming hot.
Celery stew without oil keeps for about three days in a covered container in the refrigerator. Refrigerate it once cooled rather than leaving it out for an extended time, and reheat only the portion you plan to eat.
Celery stew without oil can turn watery because celeriac and other vegetables release moisture as they cook. Use only enough added water to prevent sticking, keep the lid partly open near the end, and simmer briefly to reduce excess liquid.
Yes, celery stew without oil can be made ahead and refrigerated after it cools. Its flavors meld as it rests, making it convenient for meal prep; reheat it gently with a splash of water if it has thickened.

Celery stew without oil is a home-style Turkish dish made with celeriac, the knobbly root celery rather than the crisp stalks. It is gently cooked in water, often with vegetables such as carrot and onion; some cooks add potato, while lemon brings a fresh, tangy note. The celeriac turns tender and mellow, with a lightly sweet, earthy flavour.
Serve it warm or chilled, as a light main or alongside other vegetable dishes, bread or yoghurt. It is naturally low in fat and provides fibre, making it a satisfying choice when you want a lighter meal. A squeeze of lemon and fresh herbs work well; add beans or another protein-rich side if you’d like a more substantial plate.
