Kohlrabi with prawns| ol kopi chingri recipe
Kohlrabi also called nol kohl and ol kopi in Bengali is a vegetable belonging to cruciferous family like cauliflower and cabbage. The word kohlrabi is derived from the German words "kohl", meaning cabbage, and "rube", which means turnip.They taste like the stalks or stems of cauliflower or cabbage and I find them very delicious in curries. Before cooking you have to remove the green fibrous coating with a knife and chop into cubes like potatoes. We Bengalis cook it the vegetarian way as well as with prawns.They are a Winter seasonal vegetable predominantly found in Hilly areas.
