Recipe Summary Celery Almandine

This is a wonderful recipe that my Aunt Stevie shared with me at my engagement party over 35 years ago! This is a super easy, rather elegant, slightly crunchy, kinda nutty side dish--and I really don't even care much for celery.

Ingredients | Ants On A Log Celery Snack

2 tablespoons butter

⅓ cup slivered almonds

4 cups sliced celery

1 tablespoon dried minced onion

1 cube chicken bouillon

½ teaspoon white sugar

⅛ teaspoon ground ginger

Directions

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir almonds until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir celery, onion, bouillon, sugar, and ginger into almonds. Continue to cook and stir until celery is tender, about 10 minutes.

This can be started early, even a day ahead, and finished just before you're ready to serve the main course. Toast the almonds, add the remaining ingredients, cover and refrigerate until you're nearly ready to serve. This side dish is especially good with Asian-style dishes, like my pork chops Indonesian.
