This vibrant celeriac, radish, and watercress salad is a masterclass in texture and balanced flavours. The earthy, nutty crunch of coarsely grated celeriac provides a sturdy base for the peppery bite of fresh radishes and watercress. A homemade mustard seed dressing ties the components together, offering a sophisticated tang from white balsamic vinegar and a delightful toasted aroma from the warm seeds. It is a refreshing alternative to traditional coleslaw that feels modern and elegant on the plate.
As a naturally vegan dish, this salad is an excellent choice for a light lunch or a smart side dish alongside roasted vegetables or plant-based proteins. The combination of seasonal root vegetables and leafy greens ensures it is nutrient-dense and satisfyingly crisp. For the best results, use a food processor to grate the celeriac quickly, ensuring it retains its firm bite before tossing with the zesty dressing.
