Nutritional values

The delicious tubers score points for their high vitamin C content and cover the average daily requirement by around 80 percent. Together with peas and spring onions, they not only bring a spring-green colour to your plate but also fibre.

Looking for an appropriate accompaniment to the vegetarian stuffed kohlrabi? No problem: homemade mashed potatoes or - even less fat - small, young jacket potatoes go very well with them.
