Stage 7 - ⌛ 1 min.
Rémoulette of celeriac : Stage 7
Blend together for a few seconds.

Stage 8

Your dressing should have the consistency of a rémoulade dressing, like mayonnaise, but not quite as thick.

Rémoulette of celeriac : Stage 9
Add as much dressing as you like to the celeriac and mix well.

Serve cold, though this salad can be kept in the fridge, covered with plastic film.
Remarks
With the amounts given, you will undoubtedly have more rémoulade dressing than you need, as it is difficult to give proportions for less than a whole egg. But don't worry, like mayonnaise, this keeps well and for as long.

Could you fancy adding an exotic touch to this recipe? Try using lime juice instead of lemon, or even bergamot.
Keeping: A few hours in the fridge, covered with plastic film.
Source: Home made.

Pilau rice
Pilau rice
Pilau rice (also called "restaurant rice" in France) is a way of cooking rice that's very different from using a rice-cooker. In this recipe, the rice is first "pearled" with onion in olive oil, then chicken stock is added, and the whole lot is put in the oven. This produces a very tasty moist rice, which can easily be kept waiting without drying out.
