This is a really clean salad, fantastic with fish or cold meats. For it to be as delicate as it should be, the celery and celeriac should be very finely sliced. You can do this by hand with a knife or 939d37j with a mandolin slicer, which you can pick up really cheaply. It will make the job so much easier.
I normally use 1 whole celeriac to 1 head of celery.
All you have to do is strip back the celery and peel the celeriac and then finely slice. Place in a bowl with some chopped flat-leaf parsley and a handful of pomegranate seeds (make sure you use just the red seeds, not the bitter yellow stuff). Season and dress with olive oil and lemon juice dressing. This salad can be dressed a little before you need it, as opposed to at the table. Place on a large plate and sprinkle with some extra pomegranate seeds. Sometimes I crumble goat's cheese over this, or some ricotta salata which I encrust with dried herbs, salt and pepper, drizzled with olive oil and bake until golden in a hot oven.
