Frequently Asked Questions About Celery with yogurt sauce
What is celery with yogurt sauce made of?
Celery with yogurt sauce is made with celeriac—the celery root—mixed with yogurt, often garlic, and seasoning. Recipes may use raw grated or cooked celeriac, and toppings such as walnuts or olive oil are optional.
How do you make celery with yogurt sauce?
To make celery with yogurt sauce, grate celeriac or cook it until tender, then combine it with garlicky yogurt. If cooked, let the celeriac cool first; squeeze excess liquid from grated celeriac so the finished dish stays thick.
Should celeriac be raw or cooked for celery with yogurt sauce?
Either raw or cooked celeriac works for celery with yogurt sauce. Raw grated celeriac stays crisp and has a sharper flavor, while cooked celeriac is softer and milder. Cool cooked celeriac before mixing it with yogurt.
How do you stop celeriac from turning brown in celery with yogurt sauce?
Put peeled or grated celeriac straight into water with a little lemon juice to slow browning. Drain and squeeze it before adding yogurt; leaving it exposed to air while preparing the other ingredients can darken its surface.
Can you add apple to celery with yogurt sauce?
Yes, grated apple is a common addition to celery with yogurt sauce. Its sweetness balances celeriac’s assertive flavor. Toss the apple with a little lemon juice after grating and mix it in just before serving to keep it from browning.
Does celery with yogurt sauce contain garlic?
Often, yes: garlic is mixed into the yogurt for celery with yogurt sauce, though it is optional. Start with a small amount of finely crushed garlic, then taste before adding more, since its flavor becomes stronger as the dish sits.
Why does celery with yogurt sauce turn watery?
Celery with yogurt sauce turns watery when the celeriac is warm or retains too much moisture. Cool cooked celeriac, squeeze grated celeriac well, and use thick strained yogurt; mix them shortly before serving for the best texture.
How long does celery with yogurt sauce keep in the fridge?
Celery with yogurt sauce keeps for about two days in a covered container in the refrigerator. It may release liquid and soften over time, so stir it before serving and avoid leaving it at room temperature for an extended period.
Can you freeze celery with yogurt sauce?
No, freezing celery with yogurt sauce is not recommended. Yogurt can separate after thawing, and the celeriac may become soft and watery. Make it fresh or refrigerate it instead, adding the yogurt close to serving if preparing ahead.
What do you serve with celery with yogurt sauce?
Serve celery with yogurt sauce chilled as a side dish or mezze alongside grilled foods, roasted vegetables, or a bean dish. Its creamy, tangy flavor also fits a spread of small plates; keep it refrigerated until serving.

What is Celery with yogurt sauce?
Celery with yogurt sauce is a Turkish-style dish made with celeriac—the knobbly root known as kereviz in Turkey—rather than simply celery stalks. The root is cooked until tender and served with a yogurt-based dressing; garlic, lemon or herbs may be added depending on the recipe.
It works well chilled or at room temperature as a meze, side dish or light lunch. The earthy, gently sweet celeriac contrasts with the tangy, creamy sauce. It is a light vegetable dish that also provides fibre; pair it with bread or other meze for a more substantial meal.
