Kohlrabi Curry Recipe South Indian Knol Khol Curry

Kohlrabi is one of those vegetables that looks strange in the supermarkets. It is called Knol Khol in India. I don’t remember eating it in India, but my mom said they ate it as kids. So, I started buying kohlrabi quite frequently. It is a versatile vegetable that is crisp and tastes mild and refreshing. The skin is quite fibrous, so it definitely needs to be peeled before chopping. It is great to eat raw in a salad and takes on any flavor that it is cooked in.
I wanted to try Kohlrabi after seeing this recipe. I really loved the refreshing flavor and texture of this cabbage family member. It has long green stalks that are completely edible. Simply Recipes has ton of recipe ideas with kohlrabi.
