Can be turned into a great Kashmiri pickle too.<BR/>This is pretty much how my MIL prepared it (thought without the tomato - tomatoes are easy to freeze - just throw them in the freezer!).<BR/>Now take out the deep fryer for a simply frugal batata vada.Anitahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06002754872631420601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156654.post-73457188136451362982008-07-28T16:22:00.000-06:002008-07-28T16:22:00.000-06:00This is definitely a new way for me to use this in...This is definitely a new way for me to use this ingredient.

It is reducing the waste, using the available resources wisely and not buying unwanted things. Sometimes "Frugality" is confused with "Misery".

As I read the recipe I was actually thinking: hmmm, where's the jeera? (because I am fond of the mirch-haldi-hing-jeera quad) Mustard seeds eh? Tomatoes and a bit of sugar... sounds like a great, delicate sweet-sour treat...lets the kohlrabi flavour shine through... and I can forcast that this would go over well in this house, so...will be giving it a try.Pelicanohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00858951498917328458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156654.post-30157783819179501862008-07-25T19:56:00.000-06:002008-07-25T19:56:00.000-06:00Hey Manisha my mom too used to make navalkol like ...Hey Manisha my mom too used to make navalkol like u make minus tomato and sugar.

I needed a fix from memory lane so I had to make this. Otherwise, to keep it even simpler, you can grate it and make a slaw as it can be eaten raw. It's from the Brassica family and has a very radish-like taste and crunch.</I>Indian Food Rockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13397829480472038159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156654.post-45021497624207646072008-07-25T15:16:00.000-06:002008-07-25T15:16:00.000-06:00So that's what you do with kohlrabi!
