Smoked eel, celeriac, lime


Clean but do not peel a
celeriac. Season with salt and pepper and put a knob of butter on top, then tightly pack in 3 layers of alufoil. Put in a 160°C oven for 3 hours.

Mix 37g lime juice with 5g ginger syrup, 20g water, 20g sugar and 2g agar agar. Boil for 2 mins, then pour in a glass container and cool in the fridge for at least 30 mins to create a jelly.

Hack 20g chives, warm in 45g sunflower oil at 50°C the put in the blender for 5 mins. Mix 20g cream with 15g sour cream and season with salt and pepper.

Slice a smoked eel in nice rectangles, put the left overs with mayonaise in the blender to create a smoked eel mayo.

Start plating with the chives oil, mix in some cream to create a shift sauce.

Cut the celeriac in nice blocks with the smoked eel on top.

Finish with dots of eel mayo and tiny blocks of lime jelly
