Cooked celery root is very similar in texture to potatoes, but has a more savory flavor and half the calories. Therefore, it can easily be used to make delicious and healthy mashed potatoes. Boil the potatoes and thin out a serving with boiled celery root, then mash them, adding sour milk, kefir, or buttermilk for a creamy flavor. This recipe provides the optimal ratio of potatoes to celery. If desired, you can adjust the calorie content of the dish by adjusting the proportions in favor of celery.
