Ingredients

• 3 cups kohlrabi (peeled and diced)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground coriander
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 0.75 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 2 tablespoons fresh parsley (chopped)

Directions

Step 1

Peel the kohlrabi and dice it into 1-inch cubes. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.

Step 3

Add the minced garlic and sauté for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, stirring frequently to avoid burning.

Step 4

Stir in the ground cumin, ground coriander, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another 30 seconds to toast the spices slightly.

Step 5

Add the diced kohlrabi to the skillet and toss to evenly coat with the spice mixture.

Step 6

Cover the skillet with a lid and cook for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the kohlrabi becomes tender but still holds its shape.

Step 7

Remove the lid, increase the heat to medium-high, and sauté for an additional 3-5 minutes to lightly caramelize the kohlrabi, stirring frequently.

Step 8

Turn off the heat and drizzle the lemon juice over the kohlrabi. Toss to combine.

Step 9

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley before serving.

Step 10

Serve warm as a flavorful side dish or enjoy on its own as a light, spicy meal.
