From all the low-carb and keto side dishes, cauli-mash is what I like to cook on most days. If you want to try something else than the regular keto cauli-mash, add some celeriac (aka celery root) and cream cheese. If you need more sides to go with your ketogenic menu, simply use the filtering options when browsing through my recipes to find your favourites!
Step-by-step
Peel and dice the celeriac into about 1-inch pieces. Cut the cauliflower into small florets. Finely chop the rosemary and thyme (if you're using fresh).

Heat a large pan greased with ghee over a medium-high heat. Add the chopped herbs to the pan and cook for just about a minute until fragrant. Add the cauliflower and celeriac and season with salt and pepper. Cook uncovered for about 5 minutes over a medium-high heat and mix to prevent burning. Then, lower the heat, cover with a lid and cook for 12-15 minutes or until soft.

When the cauliflower and celeriac are browned and soft, take off the heat and place in a blender or use a [hand blender.]()

Pulse until smooth. Add the cream cheese and pulse again until well combined.

Place in a serving bowl and optionally, top with butter. Serve immediately or let it cool down and refrigerate for up to 5 days. Enjoy!

Looks yummy - I bought celeriac for the first time today and can’t wait to try all the different ways to cook it
Thank you Alison, I hope you enjoy!
I made this last night. Even though I was lazy and steamed the two vegetables, it was still delicious!
Heaven on Earth.
It doesn't say how much a "serving" is. Can you please post this with your recipes?
Sure, good point! 😊 One serving is about 3/4 cup.
I didn't have all the ingredients for this so I made it differently.
I used cauliflower, sautéed scallions, sweet peppers, pink salt and pepper. I was very good. I am so learning a new way to cook.
I had never heard of celeriac before I will have to look for it in the store next time I go, I can try it out with the celeriac in it.
I've tried roasted bell peppers before and they are great for adding flavour to it! 😊
