Recipe: Creamed Celery

Serves 4-6

Ingredients

• 4 cups sliced celery, about 1/8 inch thick
• 2 tablespoons butter
• 2 tablespoons chopped onion
• 2 teaspoon flour
• ½ cup cream
• ¼ cup chicken stock
• Salt and pepper to taste

Directions

Place the celery and butter in a pot over medium-low heat and cover.

Cook slowly, shaking the pan often until the celery is almost tender, about 5-10 minutes.

Add the onions and continue cooking until tender, about 5 more minutes.

Blend in the flour with a spoon until you can no longer see any dry areas of flour. Then gradually add the cream and chicken stock and bring to a boil.

Continue to cook, while stirring, until the sauce thickens.
