Ingredients

  • small kohlrabi 2
  • a blood orange
  • the juice of half a lemon
  • capers 12
  • olive oil 3 tablespoons
  • raw beets 2 small
  • celery root a 7-ounce (200g) wedge
  • green onions 3
  • flat-leaf parsley a handful
  • thick yogurt (I use sheeps) 3/4 cup (200g)
  • olive oil 3 to 4 tablespoons
  • garlic a small clove, crushed

Method

  • Slice the kohlrabi thinly and divide the slices among four flat plates.
  • I dont think you have to peel them, but you can if you wish.
  • The slices should be very thin, otherwise the whole thing loses its delicate quality.
  • Peel and thinly slice the blood orange and place on top of the kohlrabi.
  • Add a pinch of sea salt to the lemon juice, stir in the capers and olive oil, then spoon it over the sliced kohlrabi.
  • Set aside for a good half hour.
  • Peel and coarsely shred the beets and celery root.
  • Finely shred the green onions and toss all together with the parsley leaves.
  • Mix the yogurt and olive oil, stir in the crushed garlic clove, and add a pinch of salt and black pepper.
  • Pile the grated vegetables on the kohlrabi and add the dressing.
  • Mix together as you eat, to retain the fresh crunch of the raw vegetables.
