Steps

1

Prepare and Roast Vegetables

Preheat your oven to 200°C (390°F). Peel and cut the celeriac into 2-3 cm (1 inch) cubes. Peel the onion and cut it into larger pieces, and leave the garlic cloves whole with their skin on. On a baking sheet, toss the celeriac, onion, and garlic with 2 tbsp of olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast for 25-30 minutes until the vegetables are tender and slightly caramelized.

2

Make the Soup

Remove the roasted vegetables from the oven. Squeeze the roasted garlic pulp from its skin. In a large pot, heat 1 tbsp of olive oil, then add the roasted celeriac, onion, and garlic. Pour in the vegetable broth, bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for another 5-10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

3

Blend and Cream

Remove the pot from the heat and use an immersion blender to blend the soup until smooth. Stir in the heavy cream, mix well, then return to low heat and warm through without boiling. Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.

4

Make Parmesan Crisps

While the soup is cooking, prepare the Parmesan crisps. Grate the Parmesan cheese. On a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, place small mounds of grated cheese, spaced apart. Bake for 5-7 minutes in the preheated 200°C (390°F) oven until golden brown and crispy. Remove, let cool slightly, then carefully peel them off the paper.

5

Serving

Ladle the hot soup into bowls, garnish with fresh parsley or chives, and serve with the crispy Parmesan crisps.

Extra Tips

Cut the celeriac into even-sized pieces before roasting to ensure they cook uniformly.

Remove the Parmesan crisps from the baking sheet immediately after baking, before they cool completely and stick.

If you prefer a thicker soup, use less broth or simmer it longer until it reaches your desired consistency.
