Ingredients

For the Celery Root Cups

  • 1 large celery root about 1 pound, peeled and grated
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 ½ tablespoons avocado oil you need less in the air fryer

For the Stewed Salami

  • 6 slices Dominican salami cut into small cubes
  • 1 onion chopped
  • 1 green pepper chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 tablespoons tomato puree
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 2 to 3 tablespoons water only if needed
  • Optional toppings:
  • Avocado slices cilantro, grated cheese, hot sauce

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Celery Root Cups (Air Fryer Method)

  • Peel and grate the celery root.
  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Toss lightly with avocado oil.
  • Press the mixture firmly into silicone muffin molds or small ramekins that fit your air fryer. Form thin, compact cups.
  • Air Fry
  • Preheat air fryer to 375°F (190°C).
  • Cook for 12 to 15 minutes, until golden and crisp at the edges.
  • If needed, cook 2 to 3 extra minutes for extra crispness.
  • Let them cool 3 minutes before unmolding. They firm up as they cool.

Step 2: Make the Stewed Salami

  • In a skillet over medium heat, cook salami cubes until lightly browned.
  • Add onion, green pepper, and garlic. Cook 4 to 5 minutes until soft.
  • Stir in tomato puree.
  • Add a splash of water if needed.
  • Simmer 5 to 7 minutes until slightly thickened.
  • Adjust salt and pepper.
  • You want it saucy, not watery.

Step 3: Assemble

  • Spoon the warm stewed salami into the crispy celery root cups.
  • Top with:
  • Fresh cilantro
  • Grated cheese
  • A drizzle of hot sauce
  • Or a spoon of avocado crema

Serve immediately.
