Ingredients
For the schnitzels:
1 lb kohlrabi (450g)
1/3 C breadcrumbs
1 tbsp flour
2 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp chickpea flour
Kala Namak to taste
black pepper to taste
2 tbsp water
oil for cooking
For pea purée:
1 C sweet peas
1 shallot, diced
1 garlic clove, minced
pinch of salt
black pepper to taste
4 tbsp plant milk
vegan butter or oil for cooking
Instructions
First peel kohlrabi and cut it into 1/2-inch “schnitzels”. Bring a pot with water to boil and cook kohlrabi for 10 minutes. Then drain and let it cool.
Meanwhile heat vegan butter or oil in a pan over medium heat. Sauté shallot until soft and add garlic. Stir for a minute. Now add sweet peas and cook for 5 minutes if using frozen or 3 minutes if using fresh.
Transfer sautéed peas into a blender along with salt, pepper and plant-based milk. Start with 1 tablespoon at a time and blend until you reach desired smooth consistency.
Set pea purée aside and prepare the breading. Mix 1 tablespoon of flour and breadcrumbs in one bowl and cornstarch, chickpea flour, Kala Namak, pepper and water in separate bowl.
Again heat generous amount of oil in a pan (make sure it’s clean lol) over medium to high heat.
Dip kohlrabi schnitzel into a chickpea mixture, then into the breadcrumbs and coat it evenly. Fry for few minutes on each side until golden and crispy. Remove from the pan and place onto a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil. Repeat with the rest of kohlrabi.
Serve with sweet pea purée, coleslaw and slice of lemon.
