This is a great combination of flavours and perfect with braised dishes like daube of beef Provençale. It won’t spoil if it is made a little ahead of time and kept warm.

Peel and slice the celeriac and add to the water with the potato. Celeriac discolors very quickly if left out of water. Ensure that the potato and celeriac are covered with water. Note: if making a large amount its best to use 2 saucepans. |

Mash with a masher. Add the butter and crème fraiche or cream. Whisk them all together using an electric whisk. This can be done with a masher, but it doesn’t give as good a result. |

If you need to keep the mash hot for a while place the mixture in a warmed bowl and cover (with a lid of a saucepan or tinfoil) and place the bowl over a saucepan of barely simmering water until required. |
