Kohlrabi Pottage with Tomato Juice for Fruits and Veggies Monday

in #fruitsandveggiesmonday6 years ago (edited)

Kohlrabi is not a popular vegetable, I know. Let's see if I can change that :) I love it fresh as a snack, cooked as a soup and now I've tried out as a pottage and I'm very satisfied with it.

Ingredients for 4 servings:

  • 6 medium kohlrabi,
  • 2 chopped onions,
  • 3 tablespoons of oil (sunflower or vegetable),
  • 1 - 2 tablespoons flour
  • dill to taste,
  • salt to taste,
  • 2 teaspoons of red paprika powder
  • 330 ml tomato juice.

Clean/peel the onion and kohlrabi and cut it into small cubes.

Heat the oil and cook the anion while stirring for 4-5 minutes. Add the kohlrabi, cook a bit further.

Dust with salt and red paprika powder, slowly add some cold water (to cover the kohlrabi), add the dill.

Cook on a medium heat until the kohlrabi is tender. Mix the flour with the tomato juice, add to the kohlrabi while stirring. Cook for a 4 - 5 minutes.

Season with salt (if needed) and freshly chopped dill, serve it with toast.

There's another version prepared with milk instead of tomato juice but I guess this is better. If you're using milk, you might want to add some vinegar.

This soups looks amazing, it reminds me of soup my grandmother used to make. She was using kohlrabi in soups a lot and she always had them in her garden. Great recipe Erika 🍒 🍌🍑🌿🍍🍓🍇
