Instructions
- Start with preparing the vegetables. Peel the carrots and cut them into chunky dice, and set them aside.
- To prepare the celeriac, remove the thick skin carefully with a very sharp knife and then cut off the top and bottom.
- Chop the celeriac up into slices, then into rough 2 ½ cm (1") cubes, and set them aside along with the carrots.
- Place a pan on medium-low heat and add the olive oil, and then sauté the onions until soft and translucent.
- Add the diced carrots along with the potatoes, and sauté them for a few minutes.
- Add the celeriac, and cook them for a few minutes before adding the orange juice, lemon juice, sugar, and salt.
- Bring the mixture to a boil, cover the Dutch oven with a lid, and let it simmer over low heat for about 30 minutes, until the vegetables are softened but not mushy.
- Transfer the dish to a serving plate, sprinkle on celery leaves or dill, and let it cool down to room temperature before serving.
