This is a stress-free, satisfying, and healthy side dish to meat or fish, and the oven does most of the work! The celeriac in this low-fat and low-calorie casserole provides more iron and folic acid than its equally healthy relative, the celery.

For a tasty topping and a good source of important omega-3 fatty acids, briefly roast 2 tablespoons of chopped walnut kernels in a coated pan without fat and sprinkle over the gratin 5 minutes before the end of the cooking time. If you would like small celeriac-potato gratins, do not layer the ingredients in a large casserole dish, but in 6 small ones, each with a capacity of 6-7 ounces.
