Yogurt celery and carrot tarator is a Turkish-style cold meze or dip made with grated celeriac, carrot, and yogurt, often seasoned with garlic. Some versions include walnuts and olive oil. In this dish, “celery” generally means the knobbly celery root, not celery stalks.
To make yogurt celery and carrot tarator, grate peeled celeriac and carrot, then mix them with plain yogurt and garlic. You can use the vegetables raw for a crisp dip or sauté them in olive oil and cool them first for a softer texture. Top with walnuts if desired.
Yogurt celery and carrot tarator is usually made with celeriac, also called celery root, rather than celery stalks. Celeriac has a firm, round root that grates well and gives the dip its characteristic earthy flavor; stalks would make the mixture wetter and milder.
No, you do not have to cook the celeriac for yogurt celery and carrot tarator. Raw grated celeriac gives the dip a fresh, crunchy texture; briefly sautéing it in olive oil makes it softer. If you cook it, let it cool before adding the yogurt.
Toss the grated celeriac with lemon juice or place it in water with lemon while preparing yogurt celery and carrot tarator. Celeriac discolors after exposure to air, so work promptly, then drain and squeeze it well before mixing it with yogurt.
Serve yogurt celery and carrot tarator chilled as a meze, dip, or side dish. It pairs well with grilled meat, fish, and other Turkish mezes, and can be scooped up with bread or pita. A walnut and olive-oil topping adds texture when serving.
Yes, you can prepare yogurt celery and carrot tarator ahead. For a fresher texture, grate and lemon-treat the vegetables in advance, then combine them with the yogurt closer to serving. If already mixed, refrigerate it covered and stir before serving.
Yogurt celery and carrot tarator keeps for about 2–3 days in a covered container in the refrigerator. The grated vegetables may release water as they sit, so stir before serving and discard it if it has been left out for an extended time.
Freezing yogurt celery and carrot tarator is not recommended. The yogurt can separate after thawing, while the grated vegetables may turn watery and lose their crisp texture. Make it fresh or keep it refrigerated instead.
Yes, you can make yogurt celery and carrot tarator without garlic. The result will taste milder, while the celeriac and carrot still provide the dip’s main flavor. Add lemon juice, dill, or a little olive oil if you want extra flavor without garlic.

Yogurt celery and carrot tarator is a Turkish-style cold dip made with grated celery root and carrot folded into yogurt. Garlic is a common addition, and some versions are finished with walnuts or a little olive oil.
The cool, tangy yogurt balances the carrot’s sweetness, while celery root brings a fresh, earthy note. It is usually served chilled as part of a meze spread or alongside grilled dishes; scoop it up with bread or serve it with crisp vegetables. Yogurt contributes some protein, and the vegetables add fibre, making this a relatively light side rather than a substantial meal. For a lighter texture and taste, use plain yogurt instead of a richer strained variety.
