Garlicky Braised Celery
I refuse to snack on raw celery, and I absolutely hate wasting it. But ever since I started making this, I actually enjoy buying celery! It’s a quick and delicious veggie snack. I used Za’atar, but you can easily swap it for any spice that complements your meal—try thyme, oregano, rosemary, or cumin!
Ingredients
- 3 sticks Celery
- 5 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp butter
- 1 tsp olive oil
- 150ml chicken stock (water or veg stock)
- ½ tsp za’atar
- ½ lemon
Step 1
Rinse the celery thoroughly and chop it into rough pieces.
Step 2
Melt the butter in a pan along with the oil to prevent it from burning.
Step 3
Add the garlic and sauté for 30 seconds.
Step 4
Add the celery, Za’atar, and chicken stock. Cover and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
Step 5
Add a splash of lemon juice and a pinch of salt to finish.
