Steps:
- To make the lamb: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Season the lamb on both sides with salt and pepper. Heat a large Dutch oven over high heat, add the lamb, and sear on all sides until golden brown. Transfer the pan to the oven and roast for about 12 minutes for medium-rare. Allow to rest before carving into individual chops.
- To make the vinegar: In a small saucepan, combine the vinegar, mint, and sugar and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and allow to cool to room temperature. Pour the vinegar mixture over the vegetables in a small bowl.
- To make the celery root puree: In a small saucepan, cover the celery root with water and boil until tender. Strain the celery root, transfer to a food processor with the butter, salt and freshly ground black pepper, and puree until smooth. Keep warm.
- To make the sauce: In a medium skillet, saute the shallots and garlic in 1 tablespoon butter until soft. Add the brandy and cook until reduced by about half. Add the hoisin and veal stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer until reduced to a thick sauce. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons butter and whisk to combine. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

PORK WITH CELERY IN EGG AND LEMON SAUCE - (HIRINO ME SELINO) RECIPE
Provided by Pilly
Number Of Ingredients 10
Steps:
- Rinse the meat and drain. Discard the root end of the celery, separate into stalks, trim and rinse individually under cold running water. Using the sharp point of a knife, dislodge any suspicion of grit in between its ribbed back. Cut the celery into 5 cm pieces, using its leaves as well. Drop the celery into salted boiling water in a large saucepan, about 22-25 cm and boil for 5 minutes, then drain and keep aside. In the same saucepan, heat the oil and sautee the meat and then the onion. Neither should get brown but just be slightly transparent. Add the hot water, cover and simmer for 45 minutes, or until the meat is tender. Season with salt and white pepper, add the celery and cook for a further 10-15 minutes until the celery is very tender. Turn the heat off and let it stand for at least 5 minutes before you add the sauce. Prepare the Avgolemono Sauce - egg and lemon sauce. Pour it slowly all over the meat, rotating the saucepan at the same time. Put back on a very low heat for 5 minutes only, in order to cook the cornflour and thicken the sauce, but on no account let it boil. Serve with fresh green salad, fresh bread and, if you have a large appetite, with mashed or roasted potatoes.
Tips:
- Choose the right celery: For the best flavor, use fresh, crisp celery with vibrant green stalks. Avoid limp or wilted celery, as it will not produce a flavorful sauce.
- Use a variety of cooking methods: Celery sauce can be made using different cooking methods, such as sautéing, simmering, or roasting. Each method will produce a slightly different flavor and texture, so experiment to find your favorite.
- Add aromatics: To enhance the flavor of the celery sauce, add aromatic ingredients such as garlic, onion, shallots, or leeks. These ingredients will add depth and complexity to the sauce.
- Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs, such as parsley, thyme, or rosemary, can add a pop of flavor and freshness to the celery sauce. Add them at the end of cooking to preserve their delicate flavor.
- Season to taste: Always taste the celery sauce before serving and adjust the seasonings accordingly. Salt, pepper, and lemon juice are common seasonings used to balance the flavors in the sauce.
Conclusion:
With its versatile flavor and endless possibilities, celery sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make condiment that can elevate any dish. Whether you're using it as a dipping sauce, spread, or marinade, celery sauce adds a unique and flavorful touch to your culinary creations. So, next time you're looking for a quick and flavorful sauce, give celery sauce a try. You won't be disappointed!
