Salmon with Celery Root Puree in Pita

I love to take last night’s dinner and create a variation for lunch.  This was grilled salmon made into a pita.  I used the celery root puree, added some sweet and spicy mustard and peppers to create a good balance. 

Recipe for the Celery Root Puree
Ingredients and Preparation:
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1 large shallot, peeled and chopped
3 extra-large or 4 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch chunks
2 celery roots, 1 pound each, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
2 cups vegetable stock

Directions:
Melt 2 tablespoons butter in a Dutch oven or large saucepan with a lid over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook until just beginning to turn golden about 5 minutes. Add the carrots and celery root and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Stir in the stock, and enough water to just cover the vegetables. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer, cover, and cook until vegetables are fork tender, about 30 minutes.

Start by adding 1 tsp or so of sweet and spicy mustard spread across the pita.  Then assemble by taking about 3 – 4 oz of the salmon, a healthy helping of the puree, add red and green peppers and lettuce for crunch and taste.

    I haven’t worked much with celery root, but this looks delicious–a good new way to eat salmon!
