Leftover Celery Salad

This is a really handy and quick recipe to use up leftover celery that we all seem to have in our fridge! It's a bit tart because it's semi pickled, sort of salsa-like and and intriguingly tasty, thanks to the surprising combination of caraway seeds and dill. If you don't have either of these, you can even skip the fresh herbs altogether - see notes for alternative suggestions. Serve as a side salad, or as a little dish of pickles to accompany a meal.

Instructions

  1. Remove the leaves from the celery and trim off the dirty base. Finely slice on the diagonal into 4mm / 1/6" slices.
  2. Toss in a bowl with remaining ingredients. Set aside for 10 minutes before serving.
  3. Keeps for up to 3 days in the fridge - the celery softens and becomes even more pickle like.

Notes

  • Herb alternatives - if you don't have fresh dill and caraway seeds, try mustard seeds and a pinch of pepper flakes, or toasted coriander or cumin seeds for a Middle Eastern/Indian spin.
