Vegan sauce hollandaise with asparagus & celery root schnitzel
It's asparagus season! We are very happy about the comeback of green and white asparagus and present you one of the classic dishes of this season: white asparagus with schnitzel and sauce hollandaise.
We already introduced to you vegan soy cutlets and kohlrabi schnitzel, and show you now a third option made of celery root. Fortunately, celery grows here in Germany, so you can buy it from a local farm! Besides that, it's cheap, fertile and easy to prepare. Just add a big portion of our [vegan sauce hollandaise] (https://www.zuckerjagdwurst.com/en/recipes/vegan-sauce-hollandaise), and enjoy the meal!

Celery root schnitzel
- Bring a pot or pan of salted water to a boil.
- Peel the celery root and cut into about 1 cm thick slices. We got about 10 slices from one celery root.
- Add celery slices to the pot and let simmer for about 5 minutes. In the end, they should be soft but not break into pieces. Drain the celery slices on a cloth and allow to cool down.
- Rub each celery slice (from both sides) with mustard and season well with salt, pepper, paprika powder and nutmeg.
- Use three deep plates or bowls and fill with each flour, plant-based milk, and breadcrumbs. Start by flouring the celery slices from both sides, which will help the coating stick. Dredge in plant-based milk, then cover with breadcrumbs.
- Heat a lot of vegetable oil in a deep frying pan - it should be approx. 0.4 in / 1 cm high. Fry celery schnitzel from both sides until golden brown, then carefully remove from the fat and drain on paper towels
- Serve celery schnitzel with potatoes, white asparagus, and sauce hollandaise and garnish with fresh parsley.
