Notes

Celery makes a splendid cooked vegetable, especially when it's lightly stir-fried with crispy fresh snow peas, garlic and plenty of flat leaf parsley. Bunches of celery can be kept in a plastic bag in the refrigerator for up to three weeks. Rinse before using. Parsley is a good source of vitamin C and also contains iron, calcium and potassium.
