So delicious! I like your recipes masha Allah (praise be to God). This was my first time trying kohlrabi, which we got in our local organic produce basket this week. Just make sure to get all the skin off or you will be left with hard bits. I used organic onion, organic olive oil, larger chunks of lamb with the bone in but I cooked it separately in oil and boiled it for 1 hour and a half before adding the kohlrabi. I also added a whole pierced loomi (dried lime) plus the powdered loomi and homemade baharat spice mix instead of curry powder along with less freshly ground black pepper and grey sea salt, a perfect salt. I washed & soaked my white basmati rice and added it to enough of the liquid from cooking the lamb/onions/kohlrabi along with them and cooked it all together. I would make this again insha Allah!!!
