Celeriac and tofu tartare
This is another recipe of mine for vegetable tartare. I prepared it from celeriac root but I also added tofu cheese, pesto, pine nuts and roasted onion to it. I chose not to serve the tartare with egg yolk, instead I used green pesto, which made the tartare completely vegan.
