• 2 large kumara, sliced
• 300g celeriac, sliced
• 1 cup milk
• 2 heaped dessertspoons mascarpone
• 1 heaped tablespoons crushed coriander seeds
• salt & pepper

Oil or butter an oven proof dish or individual ramekins. Place a layer of kumara slices on the bottom of the dish, then add a layer of celeriac and finish with another layer of kumara. Mix together the milk and mascarpone and season with salt and pepper. Pour over the kumara (it should just cover). Sprinkle with crushed coriander seeds and cook in a moderate oven for about 40 minutes or until tender.

Note: You can quicken the process by pre-cooking the kumara and celeriac in a microwave before adding the milk etc.

Grated Parmesan cheese also adds a nice flavour to this dish.
