Frequently Asked Questions About Sautéed celery root with yogurt
How do you make sautéed celery root with yogurt?
Peel and dice the celery root, then sauté it in a little oil until tender. Let it cool until just warm before tossing it with plain yogurt, or serve the yogurt on top; garlic and herbs are optional.
What is celery root in sautéed celery root with yogurt?
Celery root, also called celeriac, is the knobbly edible root of a celery variety. It is not the same part as the crisp celery stalks sold for snacks, and it has a denser texture when cooked.
How do you stop celery root from browning when making sautéed celery root with yogurt?
Put peeled or cut celery root in water with a squeeze of lemon while you prepare the rest. Drain it well before sautéing so it browns in the pan rather than steaming in excess water.
What kind of yogurt is best for sautéed celery root with yogurt?
Use plain, unsweetened yogurt; a thicker strained yogurt makes a creamier topping. Avoid flavored or sweetened yogurt, which clashes with the savory celery root, and loosen very thick yogurt with a small spoonful of water if needed.
Should you add yogurt to sautéed celery root with yogurt while it is hot?
No. Let the sautéed celery root cool until warm before adding yogurt, because intense heat can make the yogurt separate or turn grainy. For a smoother finish, stir a little warm celery root into the yogurt first.
Is sautéed celery root with yogurt served hot or cold?
It is commonly served chilled or at room temperature, like a vegetable side or appetizer. You can serve the celery root warm with cold yogurt on top, but mixing the two while very hot may affect the yogurt's texture.
How can you make sautéed celery root with yogurt lighter?
Use just enough oil to soften the celery root, and choose plain yogurt with a lower fat content if you prefer. Keep the seasoning simple with lemon, herbs, and pepper instead of adding richer sauces.
What goes well with sautéed celery root with yogurt?
Serve sautéed celery root with yogurt alongside grilled chicken, roasted meat, or a grain dish. It also fits on a spread with other vegetable sides; fresh dill or parsley adds a bright finish.
How should you store leftover sautéed celery root with yogurt?
Transfer leftovers to a covered container and refrigerate them promptly. The yogurt may release some liquid as it sits, so stir gently before serving and avoid leaving the dish out at room temperature for an extended time.
Can you freeze sautéed celery root with yogurt?
Freezing the finished dish is not ideal: thawed yogurt can separate, and the celery root may become soft. For better texture, freeze the sautéed celery root without yogurt and add fresh yogurt after thawing.

What is Sautéed celery root with yogurt?
Sautéed celery root with yogurt is a Turkish-style home dish made by cooking chopped celery root in a pan until tender, then serving it with yogurt. It uses the knobbly root rather than celery stalks, and the yogurt adds a cool, gently tangy contrast to the root’s earthy flavour.
The celery root becomes soft while keeping a little bite, making the dish work as a side, a small mezze-style plate or a light lunch. It is tasty warm or chilled, alongside grilled foods, beans or bread. The vegetables provide fibre, while yogurt gives the dish a creamy finish. For a lighter serving, use plain yogurt and keep the sautéing oil modest.
