We're celebrating Middle Eastern influence in this delicious vegetarian Celeriac Shawarma recipe, perfect for a fun dinner with friends or family.
Shawarma is a Middle Eastern wrap or kebab, traditionally made with marinated meat that's slow-cooked on a vertical rotisserie.
But guess what? You don't need meat to enjoy the vibrant flavours of shawarma! Simply use celeriac, the unsung hero of root veggies! Celeriac, also known as celery root, has a subtle celery-like flavour with a nutty, earthy twist. Its firm yet tender texture makes it a fantastic meat replacement in this kebab, as it roasts beautifully and absorbs the flavour of spices so well.
This Celeriac Shawarma is sure to give you all the warm, aromatic spices you love in a shawarma, without the meat and is a great way to get creative with your wonky celeriac.
These wraps taste delicious served alongside potato wedges or fries.
