Serves: 4

Method

Beat together the mayonnaise, sour cream, dill, parsley, salt and a few grindings of pepper in a large bowl. Gently stir in the apple slices, cover the bowl and set aside. Peel the celeriac with a small, sharp knife, and cut it crosswise into ⅛ inch slices. Drop the slices into enough lightly salted boiling water to cover them completely and cook, uncovered, over a moderate heat, for about 20 to 25 minutes, until the root shows only the slightest resistance when pierced with the tip of a small, sharp knife.

Drain thoroughly and pat the slices completely dry with kitchen paper. Add the celeriac to the dressing and stir gently to coat the slices thoroughly. Taste for seasoning and serve at once, or refrigerate and serve chilled.
