White Root Veggies Pasta & Green Peas in Dill Sauce

My spiralizer is one of my favorite kitchen tool! All kinds of veggies are turned into this wonderful “pasta” in just a few minutes. This white root veggies pasta & green peas in dill sauce is amazingly delicious. Zucchini is the most spiralized vegetable but this time I am going to use a few white root veggies, celeriac, parsnip and white sweet potato, a wonderful combination!

This “pasta” can be eaten raw or steamed, what I did in this case. Shortly steamed to make it a bit softer. Zucchini never needs to be steamed, it is soft enough but root veggies can be a little tougher on the digestion.

Ingredients for 2 portions of White Root Veggies Pasta & Green Peas in Dill Sauce,

  • 1 small celeriac root, pealed and sides cut off in the way that you are left with a rectangular shape, this will fit easier on your spiralizer 
  • 1 big or 2 medium parsnips, pealed 
  • 1 big white fleshed sweet potato, these have a purple skin 
  • 1 cup steamed or raw green peas 
  • Dressing
  • 1/4 cup fresh dill
  • 1 cup cubed zucchini 
  • 1 avocado
  • pink salt to taste
  • a few tsp. water if needed, the zucchini is rich in water so probably no extra water needed

Spiralize the celeriac, parsnip and sweet potato into a spaghetti pasta. In this case I steamed the veggies for a few minutes above hot water. As I mentioned above, it can also be eaten raw. The spiralized veggies can be massaged with the dressing, this will make it softer but keep it raw.

For the dressing I blended all the ingredients until creamy. You can leave it a bit chunkier, as you wish. Scoop the sauce through the pasta.

I added some extra peas and baby mustard greens as a topping. Love it! You can also warm the sauce, this will still keep it raw. I prefer cold in the summer and warm in the winter.

The peas & dill sauce is a great dip for cut up veggies or crackers.

Let me know how it turned out!
