Ingredients

measuring cup

Servings: 4-6

Directions

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Use the butter to grease an 8-inch-square baking dish.

  • Step 2

    Whisk together the heavy cream, garlic, salt (to taste), pepper and nutmeg in a bowl.

  • Step 3

    Arrange a third of the celery root slices in an even layer in the baking dish. Sprinkle with a third of the cheese, a third of the chives and then evenly pour in a third of the cream mixture. Repeat the process two more times.

  • Step 4

    Cover the baking dish tightly with aluminum foil. Bake (middle rack) for 45 minutes, or until the celery root is starting to get tender (test it with the tip of a paring knife).

  • Step 5

    Uncover and bake for 35 to 45 minutes, until the top is golden brown, the celery root is completely tender and the sauce is bubbling at the edges.

  • Step 6

    Serve hot.
