The app checks what's already in your fridge, prices it at your shop and runs the timers for you.

You'll need

  • Celeriac1
  • Apples1
  • Onions1
  • Stock cubes2 cubes
  • Double cream50ml
  • Thyme5g

Salt, pepper and oil from the cupboard. Amounts are for four; the app scales them for you.

Method

  1. Peel and chop the celeriac (1) and apple (1).
  2. Soften the onion (1) in butter (8 min), add the celeriac, apple and thyme (5g).

    Kitchen note Take your time with onions. Low heat and a pinch of salt for a good 8 to 10 minutes until soft and sweet. Rushed onions stay sharp and crunchy.

  3. Cover with 1 litre stock (2 cubes) and simmer until soft (25 min).

    Kitchen note A low simmer means a lazy bubble now and then, not a boil. Stews and sauces are always better the next day, if you can wait.

  4. Blend, stir in the cream (50ml) and season well.

    Kitchen note Take the pan off the heat a little before you stir in cream or crème fraîche so it doesn't split.

Can't find something? Doesn't matter. Swap it for something similar, it'll still be delish.
