Celeriac Steaks with Tahini Yogurt

Celeriac Steaks with Tahini Yogurt

These roasted celeriac steaks are golden and tender, topped with creamy tahini yogurt, toasted pine nuts, and a zesty herb drizzle. A hearty, plant-based dish that feels gourmet yet simple to make.

  • Total Time: 40 minutes
  • Yield: 2 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 large celeriac (celery root), peeled and cut into 1-inch thick slices
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1/4 cup tahini
  • 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
  • 2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • 1 small garlic clove, grated
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
  • 2 tablespoons toasted pine nuts
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • Salt and black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 425°F (220°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a small bowl, whisk together tahini, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, a pinch of salt, and a splash of water to loosen the sauce.
  3. Place the celeriac slices on the prepared baking sheet. Brush both sides with olive oil and season with salt and pepper.
  4. Roast the celeriac for 25 to 30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until browned and tender.
  5. While the steaks roast, toast pine nuts in a dry skillet over low heat until golden and fragrant.
  6. Mix chopped parsley with lemon juice, olive oil, salt, and pepper to create the herb drizzle.
  7. Plate the roasted celeriac steaks, drizzle with tahini yogurt sauce and herb mix, then sprinkle with pine nuts and red pepper flakes.

Notes

  • Make the tahini yogurt ahead to let flavors meld.
  • Use plant-based yogurt for a vegan version.
  • Add harissa or smoked paprika for a twist.
