Method

Place the celeriac and garlic in a pan with just enough milk to cover, and a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, put a lid on the pan, then simmer gently for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until tender. Drain any remaining milk and reserve.
Using a stick blender, whizz the celeriac to make a purée, pouring in just enough of the reserved milk to give a smooth consistency. Add the spices, cream and butter, then whizz again. Stir through the parsley, season to taste and serve.
