Could it be an artichoke? If so, sorry I've never cooked one but you could probably roast it. Does it look a bit like this? If so here shows you how to prepare it.

Is it celeriac?

Becles

If it's celeriac, it's really nice boiled with the potatoes then mash them together.

where did you aquire this weird veg? Did you dig it up in the back garden ? buy it? given it? If you dont know what it is dont eat it. It may well kell you. It may be a mutant.

Mmm that's my favourite celeriac recipe too Becles. It is also nice sliced thinly, sprayed with 1 calorie oil and baked in hot oven to make crisps/chips.

Am also wondering how the 'strange veg' was acquired...lol!

Do you not get a list in the box?

My box comes with a list of the fruit/veg and where it was grown. Sometimes it has cooking tips or recipes on too.
