This is a comforting meal, ideal for seasonal British autumn and winter produce.
My weekly veg box was the inspiration behind this vegan creamy celeriac noodles with mushroom & kale recipe. This is a comforting meal, ideal for seasonal British autumn and winter produce. The sauce is similar to celeriac remoulade.
Absolutely delicious topped with parsley, walnuts and nutritional yeast for an extra cheesy taste.
Celeriac noodles make a tasty gluten-free and low-carb alternative to conventional pasta.
As it gets the job done in no time, I love my Veggie Bullet but you can also spiralise the celeriac noodles with a handheld spiralizer.
Don’t forget to get a head start on the cashew sauce by soaking the nuts at least 4 hours in advance. Other than that, this recipe is really straightforward and quick to make.

I’d like to try this recipe but the spiralised celeriac is putting me off.
I don’t have a Veggie Bullet and it’s a big investment, so my only option is a hand spiraliser, which I;’m not sure can cope with a really vegetable like celeriac?
theflexitarian says
You can use a hand spiraliser. Alternatively you can use a vegetable peeler or a mandoline to have long flat narrow noodles. As long as the celeriac is thin enough to cook quickly the shape does not matter. Hope this helps. Annabelle x
