Heat the oil in a frying pan and gently cook the shallots and garlic for 4-5 mins, until soft.

Add the shallots, garlic and herbs, followed by the white wine, season with a pinch of salt and pepper, and lemon juice to taste. Meanwhile, boil eggs in a pan of water for 6-7 mins, then plunge into cold water to cool. Peel and roughly chop them before stirring into the sauce. Place the celeriac in a pan of boiling water and cook for 6-8 mins until tender, then mash with the remaining butter. Stir the fish pieces into the sauce and bring it to the boil, then transfer the mixture to an ovenproof dish, and spread the mash on top. Sprinkle with the grated cheese and bake in the oven for 15 mins.
