Number Of Ingredients 4

1 small celery root, peeled and diced

Steps:

  • Place celery root in a pan and add water to cover. Bring to a boil and simmer until soft, 5 to 10 minutes. Add peas towards the end of cooking and bring back to a simmer. Simmer until peas are tender, adding the mint leaves about 1 minute before removing from heat.
