- 500g celeriac
- 2 eating apples
- 1-2 tsp chopped fresh or dried thyme

Method
Peel and slice apples. Peel and dice the celeriac and thinly slice the onion.
Heat the butter and oil in a pan, gently sauté onion until soft. Add the celeriac and thyme and sweat down gently for 5 minutes. Pour over enough stock to cover the celeriac.
