Orange and Celeriac Salad

Preparation Time

25 minutes

Ingredients (serves 6)

  • 2 tbs fresh lemon juice
  • 1 large (about 500g) celeriac
  • 4 oranges
  • 100g (about 10) large pitted green olives, quartered
  • 1 x 80g packet baby rocket or baby spinach leaves
  • 1 small red onion, halved, very thinly sliced
  • 2 tbs chopped fresh fennel tips
  • 80ml (1/3 cup) fresh orange juice
  • 1 tbs white wine vinegar
  • 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil
  • Salt & freshly ground black pepper
 

Method

  1. Add lemon juice to a medium bowl of water. Peel celeriac and cut into 5cm-long matchsticks. Place celeriac in lemon water to prevent browning. Set aside.

  2. Peel skin and pith from oranges and cut crossways into 1cm-thick slices.

  3. Divide the orange, olive, rocket or spinach, onion and fennel among shallow serving bowls.

  4. Combine orange juice, vinegar and olive oil in a jug. Season with salt and pepper, and whisk until well combined.

  5. Drain celeriac and arrange over orange mixture. Drizzle with dressing and gently toss to combine. Serve immediately.
