Instructions
-
- In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Add the ground veal and chopped onion, and brown the meat until cooked through.
- Stir in water, chopped celery ribs, shredded carrot, salt, and pepper. Allow the mixture to simmer over low heat for 60 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Transfer the meat mixture to a casserole dish, spreading it evenly across the bottom.
- In a separate pot, boil the cubed potatoes and celery root until they are tender, approximately 20 minutes.
- Once cooked, drain the potatoes and celery root, and mash them together. Mix in 2 tablespoons of butter, salt, pepper, and the egg yolks until creamy.
- In a bowl, beat the egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Gently fold the egg whites into the potato mixture, creating a fluffy consistency.
- Spread the potato mixture over the meat in the casserole dish, covering it completely.
- Bake in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 50 minutes, or until the casserole is golden and bubbling.
