Here are the recipes for the dishes he's serving the stars.Directions Make Celery Root Puree, Bordelaise Sauce, Truffle Sauce according to directions below. Cook Filet Mignon and Lobster. Spoon celery root puree onto four warm plates. Place one filet and one half lobster on top of each plate. Nap with each of the two sauces. Serve.

Celery Root Puree Ingredients Directions Place the celery root and potato in a medium saucepan and cover with cold water. Season with salt and cook until soft, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain the water and return the celery and potato to the pan. Pour in the cream and simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until thickened and most of the cream is absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the butter, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Puree in a food mill, return to the pan, and keep warm over simmering water. Use as needed.

Add the veal demi and chicken stock, and simmer until reduced to about 3/4 of the original volume. Remove from heat and whisk in the butter until it is totally emulsified into the sauce base. Add salt and pepper to taste. Reserve. Truffle Sauce Ingredients Directions Combine the truffle jus and peelings in a food processor or blender and puree until smooth. Reserve. Place shallots and white wine in a saucepan and cook over medium heat until reduced to about 2 tablespoons. Add chicken stock, and continue to cook until reduced to 3/4 of the volume.
