  1. I've never had kohlrabi prepared this way, or kohlrabi greens, but this was delicious—and using the greens appeals to my frugal side! Cooking the spices in oil always gives them a bold, exotic flavor, and this dish is no exception. I didn't cook this dish as long as directed, either frying or boiling. After about 10 minutes of boiling, even with the lid on, I found that, most of the water had evaporated on me and the diced kohlrabi was nicely browned, and while the vegetables were a bit firm, we like them that way. I forgot to buy a lemon, so we did without, though some lemon juice would have made the dish even better. I served this dish with brown rice and oily toor dal cooked with ginger, cloves, allspice, and dried chile. Thanks for posting this recipe!
