Ingredients
For the fritters:
- 1 lb kohlrabi 500 g, raw, grated
- 1 onion small, grated, white
- lime juice of 1
- 2 egg
- 2/3 cup flour 80g
- 1/4 cup ricotta cheese
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ¼ tsp ground nutmeg or freshly grinded
- ½ tsp ginger grated fresh
- 1 garlic finely chopped, small clove
- olive oil for frying
For the mango and lime sauce;
- 3 ½ oz Mango 100g, frozen or fresh
- lime juice and zest of 1
- 1 tsp chili flakes
- 1 tsp soy sauce
- 1 tsp honey
Instructions
Fir the fritters:
- Combine the kohlrabi with the onion, salt and lime juice. Allow to sit for 20 minutes, then squeeze out any excess liquid.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the eggs, garlic, ginger, pepper, and ricotta.
- Add the mix to the kohlrabi mixture. Combine well and sprinkle in the flour. Fold to incorporate.
- Form palm size patties. In a skillet, heat up about 2 teaspoons olive oil and cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden and cooked through.
Cup of Yum
For the mango lime sauce:
- Place all the ingredients in a small saucepan and simmer for about 15 minutes or until soft. If you are using fresh mango, you might need to add about ¼ cup (60 ml) water. Using a stand or hand mixer, blend until smooth.
Notes
- Tip: You could swap half of the kohlrabi with grated celery root. This is another flavorful fall vegetable that we tend to forget, and it really pairs beautifully with kohlrabi.
