Frequently Asked Questions About Grilled Celeriac and Sweet Potato
How do you grill celeriac and sweet potato?
Cut the celeriac and sweet potato into evenly sized slices, coat them lightly with oil and seasoning, then grill until tender with browned marks. Turn the slices occasionally; the sweet potato may soften sooner, so check each vegetable separately.
Do you need to peel celeriac for grilled celeriac and sweet potato?
Yes, peel the rough, knobbly skin from the celeriac before making grilled celeriac and sweet potato. Sweet potato skin is edible after washing, and leaving it on gives the slices a firmer texture.
Should you parboil celeriac before grilling it with sweet potato?
Usually, no. Thin, evenly cut celeriac can go straight onto the grill with sweet potato; parboiling is useful only for thicker pieces that would otherwise take too long to soften before browning.
Why does sweet potato cook faster than celeriac in grilled celeriac and sweet potato?
Sweet potato usually softens faster because its flesh is less dense than celeriac. For evenly cooked grilled celeriac and sweet potato, start the celeriac first or cut the sweet potato into slightly thicker slices.
What seasoning works best for grilled celeriac and sweet potato?
Thyme, black pepper, garlic, and smoked paprika complement grilled celeriac and sweet potato without masking their earthy and sweet flavors. Toss the slices with the seasoning and a little oil before grilling so it coats them evenly.
What is celeriac in grilled celeriac and sweet potato?
Celeriac is the swollen root of a celery plant, not the familiar celery stalk. It has a firm, pale interior and a mildly celery-like, earthy taste that becomes sweeter and softer when grilled.
What goes well with grilled celeriac and sweet potato?
A lemon-tahini sauce, herby yogurt, or chickpea salad pairs well with grilled celeriac and sweet potato. The vegetables can also accompany grilled fish, chicken, or a plant-based main dish.
Can you cook grilled celeriac and sweet potato in a grill pan?
Yes, a grill pan works well for grilled celeriac and sweet potato. Heat it before adding the lightly oiled slices, cook in batches rather than crowding the pan, and turn them once browned.
How do you stop celeriac from browning before grilling celeriac and sweet potato?
Coat cut celeriac with lemon juice or keep it in water with a little lemon until you are ready to grill. Browning happens when the cut surface meets air, and it does not by itself mean the celeriac has spoiled.
Can you freeze grilled celeriac and sweet potato?
Yes, you can freeze grilled celeriac and sweet potato, but thawed slices tend to be softer and wetter. Cool them fully, freeze in an airtight container, and reheat in an oven or pan to improve the texture.
