Mushroom and Lentil Ragout with Roasted Celeriac Mash

Nothing better that this hearty recipe for this typical winter day! 

It takes just a few ingredients that you probably already have in the fridge and not more then 30 minutes and you have a wholesome delicious dinner! 

I used cooked lentils that I have in my freezer for emergencies but canned are also a great option and if you prefer to make the purée in the traditional way, it’s also a good option but I have to confess that roasted veggies are always the best!
