Ingredients
 

  • 300 g Celery root
  • 350 g Potatoes
  • 1 medium Onion
  • 500 g Chestnuts, chestnuts; vacuum-packed or out of the jar
  • 4 tbsp Oil, e.g. olive oil

  • 3 tsp Instant broth
  • 2 stems Parsley

Instructions
 

  • Peel, wash and dice the potatoes and celery. Peel the onion and cut into cubes. Remove the chestnuts from the packaging (or from the jar: place on a sieve and drain), put 3 chestnuts aside.

  • Cut the remaining 3 chestnuts into thin slices. Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a pan and fry the chestnuts for about 2-3 minutes. Put aside. Wash and chop the parsley.
