Navalkol Bhaaji

Kohlrabi is the one vegetable that I love to eat raw.With an innate flavour that's so delicious, Kohlrabi bhaji is a definite crowd-pleaser ! One of my personal favourites, here's the recipe.

Navalkol/Kohlrabi

Navalkol (नवलकोल) also known as kohlrabi, gunth gobhi, knol khol and ganth gobi is an annual vegetable that is botanically related to vegetables like cabbage, broccoli and cauliflower

Navalkol is a light green coloured round vegetable, somewhat similar to a cabbage. It has long light green coloured shoots that can be eaten raw or cooked. Even though it seems like a root, it’s actually a large, woody 'swollen stem' which grows over the soil.Kohlrabi is surrounded by two distinct fibrous layers that do not soften appreciably when cooked. These layers are peeled away prior to cooking or serving raw.
