Preparation steps

1.

Clean, peel and wash the celery and cut into slices about 3/4" thick. Squeeze the lemon half. Pour the juice with the celery slices into boiling salted water for about 10 minutes and cook over medium heat. Then drain and pat dry.

2.

In the meantime, peel, wash and dice the sweet potatoes and cook them in a pot with water for about 15 minutes.

3.

Cut the cheese into slices. Use a knife to cut pockets into the celery slices and fill them with cheese to make the schnitzel.

4.

Wash parsley, shake dry, and chop. Mix together with some salt, pepper, almonds, peanuts, and whole wheat crumbs on a plate. Put whole wheat flour on another plate and whisk eggs in a 3rd plate or shallow bowl. Turn the schnitzel first in flour, then in the egg, and then in the nut mixture. Heat oil in a pan. Fry the celery schnitzels on both sides for about 5 minutes until golden brown.

5.

Drain sweet potatoes, press through a potato press, add butter in pieces and stir in milk. Season to taste with salt, pepper and 1 pinch of freshly grated nutmeg. Arrange celery schnitzel on sweet potato puree and serve sprinkled with remaining peanuts.
