Transfer the pork, along with the onions and a few whole garlic cloves, to a roasting tin. Roast for 30 mins per 500g, plus 20-30 mins. Allow to rest for 10-15 mins, before carving.

Add 600ml water or stock and simmer for 20 mins, until the celeriac is soft. Drain, then put back into the pan, with the lid on, to steam dry. Mash well and season. Serve with grated nutmeg.
