Celeriac mash
- 1 large celeriac, peeled and roughly chopped
- 3 garlic cloves

Method
Steam celeriac and garlic over pot of boiling water until celeriac is tender.
Add salt, pepper, and goats chevre, then mash until well combined.
Watercress salad
- 1 bunch watercress, roots removed and washed thoroughly
- 2 tbsp capers
- 2 lemons
- 2 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
- 1 tsp cracked black pepper

Method
Remove peel from one of the lemons, and cut into segments, removing all seeds. In a bowl combine watercress, lemon segments, approximately 1 tsp of lemon zest, and capers.
To make the dressing, mix together the juice from the remaining lemon, olive oil and salt. Serve with dressing and cracked black pepper.
