Heat olive oil in a 4 quart sauce pan over low heat just until it shimmers. Add the celeriac, garlic, salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, just until it begins to soften, about 5 minutes. Increase the heat to medium high and add the water. Bring to a boil and cook until the celeriac is tender and easily pierced with a fork, approximately 20 minutes. drain the celeriac through a colander and return to the pot. Ussing a stick blender, puree until there are no lumps present, about 1 minute. Place the butter and heavy cream into a microwave proof bowl and heat just until the butter is melted, about 45 seconds. Add the cream and butter and continue to puree with the stick blender for another minute. Serve warm.
