Meanwhile, make the sauce by mixing all the sauce ingredients together in a small jug. Remove the celeriac from the oven and pour over half the sauce. Cover with the foil and return to the oven for 1 hour.

Remove from the oven and gently pull apart with two forks. Ladle over a little more of the sauce and cover again. Bake for a further 40 minutes. Remove from the oven, pull again, ladle over the remaining sauce and bake for a final 40 minutes. Pull again and gently stir together, scrapping in the dark sticky edges. Leave to cool slightly before serving.
