Carrot and Celery Gratin

cc2

Carrot and celery remind me of my adolescence year when I used to make hair masker out of them. I still can remember my best friend back then  told me that my hair smelled like soup ;) .

Now days I cook a lot with carrot but not with celery,  celery for me has such a strong aroma and too peppery, so I like to use parsley instead.

When Scott from Real Epicurean informed me that this month “In The Bag” event’s theme is Detox  recipe with the use  of  carrot , celery, and beetroot, I sort of have no choice but to include celery, because for me beetroot is stranger than celery…hehe.

So, here is my attempt of a healthier cooking.
