What to do with kohl rabi?

onestep

Another new veggie in the box this week! I'm guessing that it's going to be cooked similar to swede - is this right?!! I'm hoping one of you lovely OS'ers can come up with a good recipe, we tried out the beetroot chocolate muffins and they were yummy, thanks so much.

ta muchly!

Oooh, I love kohl rabi. Grew my own a few years back. I just peeled it thinly, then sliced in a salad. Bit like radish in taste.

I had one too. Same veg box company? I never know what to do with the thing, and dare I admit have chuck them in the past ( oh the shame! And admitting it on OS too! :embarasse ) Will make an effort this week to use it. Honest!

In the past I've made gratin with it - pour cheese sauce over cooked kohl rabi and heat through in the oven. I can't think of a proper recipe but basically it's the same as cauliflower cheese.

Bless you all!!
Just got home to my riverford box and a puzzled wife saying "what do I do with this" :rotfl:

Anyway, now I know.

So thanks to you all!!

Ok I've grown kholrabi for the first time because the seeds were cheap in Lidl. Now the first one is tennis-ball sized, how do I cook it? can you use the leaves like greens? (I've fed some to the guinea pigs)

Nodwah,

I have grown kohlrabi for the first time to and shredded the flesh and used it in salad, really nice. I stir fried the greens in a little sesame oil, and drizzled over a little oyster sauce to serve...this is how my DDIL cooks pak choi and it is very simple and tasty.
